Yes. Except for the "send" button.

Look at the review and approve workflow as an example of Alfresco doing this sort of thing.

Thanks for the quick answer mrogers.
I already studied the workflow part and at the moment it's not the problematic element. May be I was not clear enough in my problem explanation so I'll try to explain in more detail.
The difficult steps for me are 2, 3, 4 and 8 points I mentioned above.
Then user selects "send request" somehow web form should be opened (how to do that in Alfresco I didn't find out yet).
The request it self has fields that user should fill in and may contain references to other documents that should be uploaded at this steps or later when editing request. I really couldn't figure out how to do that creating/editing process correctly…

Can you also comment why part for "send" button is "No" and maybe I could achieve something similar to that. I was thinking about document metadata property change.

Yes. Except for the "send" button.

Excuse me for my English.
