Yes, the NCAA Women's is similar to FIBA; the FIBA rule applies to the entire court (both front and back), meaning you can have both five- and eight-second counts simultaneously.

Also, the 6' closely guarded rule is measured from the forward foot of the defender to the forward foot of the ball handler NOT a hand reaching forward.
