Of course I know is possible to create a file with a certain size and how to do it. But is it possible to create a file with a certain size and also a certain MD5 fingerprint?

Theoretically, yes. Practically, it will most likely require computation of all permutations of all n bytes in a file — baiscally, brute-forcing. Which means, this is hardly doable in any reasonable timeframe.
