Re: Is that even possible?
That's already in the rules, though. If you want to concentrate on something, you have to make a concentration skill check that increases the more damage you're taking. A spellcaster would be pretty much screwed if he were submerged in acid.
RE. Acid burns: 100% of the body surface can be burned, and you could still survive it even in a magic-free world. Just make sure that a decent portion of that is 1st or 2nd degree burns, from which the skin can still heal, and that your lungs are still working. I wouldn't envy the guy trying to recover from that, though. They don't make painkillers strong enough for burn victims.
Of course, in OOTS-world, you could be healed and survive easily... which is probably why the cleric is there. Theoretically, in D&D you can get mortally wounded thousands of times a day and still survive, given the existence of healing magic. Ouch.
