Not certain if I can do the write up of the Thassilonian Magic varriant from the ISM, but basically choosing a Thassilonian specialist blocks two schools from your spell list entirely. They don't exist to you anymore. Nor can you ever learn from those two schools. Nor can you choose the two schools. They are automatically chosen based upon the speciality.
My gut says, "no". But I am uncertain. In the description of Thassilonian Specialist, it doesn't even state the caster must be a specialist wizzie or even that a specialist wizzie of one type of magic couldn't also pick Thassilonian specialist of a different caster type.

I dont think a Spellslinger can be any sort of specialist at all, for what its worth; They give up Arcane School.
