If I understand your questions correctly then:

1. Select the audio clip you want to lengthen (the correct term is "stretch"), select "time-stretch" in the stretch menu (bottom right of the screen) and then drag the clip to the desired length while holding the ALT key in your keyboard.

2. You cannot join loops together, it is considered "destructive" wave editing and tracktion doesn't support it yet.

A workaround can be:

* Insert a new track (ctrl+T)
* Shift+drag the loops to the new track
* Select the track and choose render track> to project directory.
* Select "replace" in the dialog.
* Shift+drag the clip back to the original track and trim it.
