While possibly not a true ComboBox depending on your definition, a drop-down list can be achieved using http://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/Constraints as part of your http://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/Data_Dictionary_Guide#Step_by_Step_Model_Definition

For example, I have a CT model that includes

    <constraints>
        <constraint name="fp:allowedPositions" type="LIST">
            <parameter name="allowedValues">
                <list>
                    <value>Department Head</value>
                    <value>Tenured Professor</value>
                    <value>Teaching Assistant</value>
                    <value>Associate Professor</value>
                    <value>President</value>
                </list>
            </parameter>
        </constraint>
    </constraints>
    …
      <type name="fp:profile">
         <title>Faculty Profile</title>
         <parent>cm:content</parent>
         <properties>
          …
            <property name="fp:position">
               <title>Position</title>
               <type>d:text</type>
               <constraints>
                   <constraint ref="fp:allowedPositions" />
               </constraints>
            </property>
         </properties>
      </type>
‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

which displays quite nicely with a drop down using a standard entry in web-client-config-custom.xml

   <config evaluator="node-type" condition="fp:profile">
      <property-sheet>
                  <show-property name="fp:position"/>
      </property-sheet>
   </config>
