You are talking about emacs aren't you? Of course it is possible. :)
I looked at the other suggestions and found them lacking. So I wrote a little
function that puts the cursor (point) on the desired column of any line longer
that the desired maximum column.
Here it is:
<<find-long-line.el>>
Hope you enjoy it.
