Yes you can make a Bind or A marco for this.
This would be a Marco
/Marco Oni "targetcustomnext Oni"
Now I don't know if it can cast Smoke flash but it would be something like this
/Marco Oni "targetcustomnext Oni$$powexecname Smoke Flash"

Thank you so much. Could you by chance point me to a guide that has a list of slash commands like targetcustomnext? The ones that I have been looking at in the guide section and on the MM forum didn't have anything like that listed.
I don't know a guide that as them all but here is Paragon Wiki list. Most of them you can turn into binds and marcos.
Also Here is a great guide for making inspiration.

Those look great. Thanks again!

The /targetcustomnext command will target anyone or anything with the name you specify. For example, if you want to target sappers, simply type: /bind s "targetcustomnext sapper". You can now keep clicking on your 's' key and it will only select anything with the word "sapper" in its name. Targetcustomnext will also target partial names as well. For example, /bind s "targetcustomnext civ" will target anything with the word 'civ' in its name in any order; this is useful for those rescuing civilian missions where the name of the hostages may change but they all have the root word "civilian" in them...which the targetcustomnext will work on.|

As for macro, instead of typing /bind key "targetcustomnext ", you would type /macro name "targetcustomnext " instead.
Now, I don't think you can actually tell a henchman to use specific powers...so it's really not possible to tell your Oni to use his smoke bomb. The command /Marco Oni "targetcustomnext Oni$$powexecname Smoke Flash" will not work since it will target your Oni BUT will try to execute YOUR smoke flash...which is impossible since you don't have that power, your Oni does. Therefore, this command would just simply target your Oni and that's it.
You might want to include the extra parameters, eg: /macro oni "targetcustomnext enemy alive oni" , so it doesn't target the dead ones or anyone around who might coincidentally have the pattern "oni" in their name.

Additionally, if you only care about your pets, and the pet window is open, you can use /petselect x, where x is the number of the pet in the window, from top to bottom, starting at 0.|

I have binds on my MMs for /teamselect 1 through teamselect 8 on numpad 1-8, and then /petselect 0 through /petselect 9 on alt+numpad 0-9 (some MMs get over 6 pets in the window). Then I can use single-target buffs/heals easily on any of them - if it's a player, I hit the numpad key for their position in the team window, if it's a pet I hit alt and the numpad for their position in the pet window.

Thanks for all the additional info guys. The /petselect x command looks great.
