No, there is no feature like this currently, though AFAIK it is planned.

There is a workaround, though:

Create "Server"s that correspond to the groupings you'd like to see.
Different "Server"s in Pan can point to the same physical newsserver. So,
for example, I have a Server in Pan called "Palm" which points to
my.isps.newsserver and contains all the Palm OS related newsgroups. I also
have a Server called "PocketPC" (OK, so I don't really... I dislike
PocketPCs, but you get the idea...) which points to my.isps.newsserver
(the same one) and contains all my PocketPC related newsgroups.

It's not ideal, but it works for now ;)
