Not as far as I know. Labels are linked to cat values, not to cells. 
This is the entire logic of the system, i.e. that cat values represent 
the content of the cell and that labels explain that content. In that 
logic, it wouldn't make any sense to explain the same cell content 
differently for two different cells.

If you want to link more than one attribute to a cell, you have to work 
with vector grids.
