If I have 7 cards in my hand, can I cast Wheel of Fortune followed immediately by Firestorm and discard my remaining 5 cards to deal 5 damage to 5 targets and then when Wheel of Fortune resolves draw 7 cards?

Sure you can. Since Wheel of Fortune simply has you discard your whole hand and draw seven cards (rather than draw a number equal to how many you discarded), you can respond with Firestorm to discard your remaining cards and deal 5 damage to 5 targets. You'll discard a hand of zero cards and draw seven cards when Wheel of Fortune resolves.

I think what you need to make explicit in the game is to cast wheel and cast firestorm in response. The way you wrote it, it makes it sound like wheel resolves first, and then you cast firestorm afterwards. It sorta makes a difference.
