Possible to count actions and then perform reverse action?

[mackr0]

I'm just learning how this all works but wondering if it's possible and how it might be done.
I'm using the tab key option on https://www.webtips.dev/webtips/cypress/how-to-press-tabs-in-cypress which takes me to a skip nav link

cy.get('body').tab()
cy.focused().should('have.class', 'skip-to-content')

I want to count the number of times it takes to tab until i return to the skip to content element, and then count the number of times it takes to do it in reverse (shift + tab) and make sure that the count is the same.

Is it possible to do this in cypress?
