Wow! Half a day sounds like a huge code base! Anyways, yes you can do this in Maven 3 but maven takes the call on how the modules get build. You can enforce a build order among modules using dependencies (if A depends on B, maven will build B before A) but I'm not aware of any other ways to enforce the order.
Another notable point is to check if your plugins are compatible with parallel builds - either check their documentation or simply build with "-T N" option and watch for warnings (N is the number of threads to build in parallel).
