Yes, I typically use what I call a multicite to get multiple citations
with biblatex. It just inserts {key}. I precede two or more of these
with a placeholder--π for parencites, † for textcites, or ƒ for
footcites--and then use a filter to insert \parencites, etc. This is
crude, and wouldn't work in a more general setting, but it serves for
the work I do.
BTW, parencites et al. were a major step forward in biblatex, IMO. Note
that CSL doesn't yet support multiple citations.
