Yes.

secondary (or vice versa)? Or is it via some other entity or tag?

Combine primary and secondary as shown in the following code:

 <indexterm>
    <primary>License</primary>
    <secondary>beer</secondary>
 </indexterm>

the same is for gpl, public domain, etc. Just replace beer with the respective 
secondary entries.
