Emacs can be made to support *anything*.  What's more important, for
every feature or customization you might think of, there's a 95%
chance that somebody already did it, so all you need to do is find
it.

Using Emacs efficiently is an exercise in package management ;-).
That's why commands like "M-x apropos", "M-x finder-by-keyword" and
the manual index-search are so important.

For your specific problem, try "M-x pc-selection-mode RET".  If that's
not enough, add "M-x pc-bindings RET" for a good measure.
