Is it possible to have multiple video sources send to one multicast group? If it is, then is source specific multicast the method of allowing a multicast receiver to filter which video source it wants to receive?

Yes, and yes.

SSM is one method of doing this. This topic comes up in multicast security discussions - you can use ACL's to prevent unauthorized sources from sending traffic to a given group. I would think a google search on multicast security would give you some config examples.
