No. The HIG answers your questions:

http://developer.apple.com/Mac/library/documentation/UserExperience/Conceptual/AppleHIGuidelines/XHIGControls/XHIGControls.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/TP30000359-DontLinkElementID_111

"Note: Multiple rows of tabs are not supported in Mac OS X."

"If you have too many tabs to fit into a window properly, it’s
acceptable, although not highly recommended, to use instead a pop-up
menu to change the contents of a group box"

This is yet another reason why dynamic UIs are a Bad Idea(TM).
