Mutt does support multi-key sequences for macros. If you wrote a
script to generate all the variations you might need, you could
achieve a small part of what you want. Eg:

macro index "\Cd" "<delete-thread>"
macro index "1\Cd" "<delete-thread>"
macro index "2\Cd" "<delete-thread><delete-thread>"
macro index "3\Cd" "<delete-thread><delete-thread><delete-thread>"

etc.

Your other examples are more problematic though.
