Its possible. The key is defamatory, nor derogatory, statements made under false pretense support the malicious intent. This is especially true with fake screen names or instigating troll storms as a means of retaliation for other issues. You may want to retain a lawyer to send a cease and desist/retraction letter to the offender.
