Is it possible to have a alias 'key' that consists of multiple words?
I tried (and without the ""):
nano ~/.bashrc
alias "git puhs"="git push"
source ~/.bashrc
>>bash: alias: `git puhs`: invalid alias name
Is this possible in any other way?

No it is not possible. Alias name can't contain spaces. It is possible to "chain" aliases, by adding space on the previous alias value.
alias git="git "
alias puhs=push
For your sanity, do not do it that way and read https://git-scm.com/book/en/v2/Git-Basics-Git-Aliases .
