We do know that two simultaneous nonverbal spells can be cast by one 
wizard. In OOP Dumbledore uses one motion of his wand to cause 
Voldemort's conjured snake to disappear and to cause a curtain of 
water to engulf Voldemort at the same time.

Actually there are other spells that produce a green light. One of 
them happened accidentally when Ron tried to use the Eat Slugs curse 
on Malfoy. A "jet of green light" (the same words JKR uses for the 
spell cast by Snape) shot out of the wrong end of Ron's broken wand 
and hit Ron instead. So a jet of green light does not necessarily 
equal an AK.

I think there is one other common spell that produces a green light, 
but I can't put my finger on it right now.
