Don't think you can have Ctrl+Click, but you can set up any keyboard shortcut you like... default is F12 for right click, F11 for middle click.
You need to edit the MouseButton2 and MouseButton3 entries in /etc/sysctl.conf if you want to change those. Run 'sudo showkey' and press the shortcut you want to figure out what codes you need to put in /etc/sysctl.conf.
(Or, just buy a cheap 2 or 3 button mouse and use that instead...)

use mouseemu. It can allow you to use ctrl+click in the same behavior as in MacOS. But mouseemu is a bit buggy so use with caution.
