Sure it is. XMLC doesn't care in the least if the template "row" is really a 
<tr>, a <li>, a <td> - as in your case - or some other tag. Simply use the 
<td> as "row template", <span> or something similar for the "columns", and do 
the fill columns/clone template/insert copy routine as usual. If you use the 
same ID, you don't even have to change the code ;-)

Example HTML:

<tr>
<td id="MyTemplate">Dynamic column # <span id="ColNo">??</span></td>
</tr>

It's a bit more tricky if you want to fill in a dynamic row with a number of 
dynamic columns (basically, you need to make sure that the row template is 
cleared before you start the next row), but even that is doable ;-)

Hope this helps,
