    Of course you can do it, to manage roles and capabilities in wordpress, you can try using the following functions:

    • add_role():Allows you to add a custom role.
    • remove_role(): Delete a role.
    • get_role ():Gets information about the role and the capabilities associated with it.

    For example to create a new role you could do something like this:

    $result = add_role( 'client', __('Client' ),
array(
'read' => true, // true activa la capacidad, false la desactiva.
'edit_posts' => true, // Permite al usuario editar sus propios posts
'edit_pages' => true, // Permite al usuario editar páginas
'edit_others_posts' => true, // Permite al usuario editar otros post no solos los suyos.
'create_posts' => true, // Permite al usuario crear posts
'manage_categories' => true, // Permite al usuario manejar categorias 
'edit_themes' => false, // El usuario no puede editar el tema
'install_plugins' => false, // El usuario no puede instalar nuevos pluggins
'update_plugin' => false, // El usuario no puede actualizar plugins
'update_core' => false // El usuario no puede realizar updates del core

)

);

    I hope it helps you.
