If I want to buy the 12 string version of a 7 string guitar would that be a fourteen string?

Sounds logical, Captain.
The problem I foresee is buying replacement strings for such a beast. The bottom three strings would be doubled with the top four being pairs an octave apart. Depending whether the 7th pair is higher or lower, you would have to buy a 12-string set and an extra double or octave pair for the 7th strings. You may end up buying one or two extra sets and throwing a bunch of strings away just to get the two you need.
Wait for the Steve Vai Signature 14. Then at least one manufacturer will have packaged sets!

Sometimes, but they mostly sound very uninspiring. Basically, they sacrafice tone for volume, which is not a trade off I want to make.
