Let me explain the situation, I have 15 users which are assigned to a bunch of different groups. I gave rwx permissions to all 15 but 2 users (I simply made a group specifically for that) for a directory bills, but theres another subdirectory access, in which I need to give r-x permissions to a group of 2 users, and rwx permissions to another group made up of 2 users as well. I will also need to do the same thing on different directories later on.

So, is this even possible? If so, how can I do it?

You cannot assign multiple groups to a single directory. For that you will want to use Access Control Lists (ACL) just like "muru" said above. tutorial on ACL. Here's another great tutorial by Benjamin Cane Benjamin Cane - ACL tutorial.
