Sure, several solutions exist.

If you use the search dialog (Alt+F7) one might be:
go to Plugins tab and enable:

Code: Select all

tc -> name -> contains
and enter your first word.
Click More rules to add a 2nd word.
Repeat this for all your search terms.

Now start the search as usual.
TC plugins: PCREsearch and RegXtract

In addition to milo1012 :

If you want to find all words in one filename enable "AND" option
If you want to find all filenames with any of this words, enable "OR" option
