Yes you can. Sort of. The series like columns do not seem to auto increment the series number like that built in series clumn. Maybe that change will do what you want.

You pretty much have to do it manually now.

You get the books into the right order. Then you can Bulk Edit Metadata to put them in the Main series in order. Or you add them to the main series one at a time Editing the metadata. Then sort by the series column.

This will be the main series in order.

Then select Sub Series A books and Bulk Edit the metadata and under Custom Field pick the Sub Series A and then tell it to Auto Number, and set the Start number to 1.

When you add books later, just select the new Sub Series A books, and NOT check the Start Number box, and it will pick up from the last number used in that series.
