Are there actually wood studs in there that I can screw directly into? And would anyone know how deep of a screw I could use if so? I'm nervous I'll damage the cement.

If I'm not mistaken, there are wood studs inside the concrete blocks to which the wallboard is attached. Wallboard is not attached directly to the concrete blocks.
