As part of the work on CiviHR, a new import screen for multi-record custom fields was written for the upcoming CiviCRM 4.5. There's some more discussion in JIRA:

http://issues.civicrm.org/jira/browse/HR-235

If you need to do it today (with a stable/released version of Civi), it *may* be possible with the "Custom Value API" and one of the API-based import tools:

https://civicrm.org/blogs/xavier/api_batch_tools
https://civicrm.org/extensions/api-csv-import-gui

However, I don't know if those tools work with the "Custom Value API". Maybe Eileen or Xavier can comment?

I think either of those tools work against 'any api with a create method' - although I'm not sure what the syntax would be or whether that can be wrangled into a csv cell
