Can an excerpt be something other than the first paragraph?

For example-Can I post the 2 or 3 key paragraphs from throughout a 12+ paragraph story and call that an exerpt if Iam linking?

That would still be excerpting, yes

I think you can excerpt any part of an article, but it has to be a small excerpt, I think posting half the article and calling it an excerpt would still get us into trouble.
