is this sentence right? 'he could not be able to perform'????

No, it does not sound right. It could be corrected as:\n\na. He is/was not able to perform\n\nb. He could not perform\n\nc. He is/ was unable to perform

I really do not like to say that God cannot do this or cannot do that but in this case, I think that:\n\nGod cannot quit being God.\n\nJust like you cannot quit being yourself.\n\nWith love in Christ.

here are the examples you asked for, pal\n********************************************\n1- He kissed me passionately, as if he (loved) me ( in this sentence the man does NOT love me BUT he pretended to be in  love with me ). \n\n2- She insisted to go onstage and move her body as if she was a dancer. (  here she is NOT a dancer BUT she acted like a dancer ).\n\n3- He plays the trick well (as if he was) a magician ( here he is NOT a magician but he acts like a magician).\n\nNOTE** "as if" should always be followed by a PAST simple tense, even in a present sentence. why? because it is just a matter of "pretence" 'cos the subject ONLY ACTS like a dancer or a magician but he/she is not any of this. \n___________________________________________________\nWish\n******\n1- I wish i (could be) a doctor in the future ( this sentence shows that there is still hope that i become a doctor in the future).\n\n2- He wishes he (were) a scientist. (this sentence shows that "he" is not a scientist but he wishes he can be one)\n\n3- She wishes she (had gone) to the party (this sentence shows that the party already ended and there is no way "she" can turn back time and attend the party and so we use the past participle tense).\n\nhope i was any helpful to ya ..anytime!

True.  But he can't do it until the tour is up.  He has to fulfill the American Idol contract.

no, he legally cannot because he is not a legal immigrant to the US of A and he doesn't have the rights because he is an illegal alien. If he was a citizen he would have the rights and then he could, no he couldn't if he is illegal.

To me, A person's success lies on their ability to be persistant, believe in themselves and don't give up when others say they can't do something. When someone says, "You can't do that!" It makes me even more determined to do whatever it is I wanted to do!
