JOptionPane with multiple inputs

I need to get input in different ways using JOptionPane. Specifically, I need a dropdown menu along with the default input text field to both be present in the same JOptionPane. Is this achievable? if so, how?

If you need different components in your pane, you can try to implement something like this:

JTextField firstName = new JTextField();
JTextField lastName = new JTextField();
JPasswordField password = new JPasswordField();
final JComponent[] inputs = new JComponent[] {
        new JLabel("First"),
        firstName,
        new JLabel("Last"),
        lastName,
        new JLabel("Password"),
        password
};
int result = JOptionPane.showConfirmDialog(null, inputs, "My custom dialog", JOptionPane.PLAIN_MESSAGE);
if (result == JOptionPane.OK_OPTION) {
    System.out.println("You entered " +
            firstName.getText() + ", " +
            lastName.getText() + ", " +
            password.getText());
} else {
    System.out.println("User canceled / closed the dialog, result = " + result);
}
