Uhmm, no. This has been discussed recently, and there aren't any programs to combine epub files cleanly.

If you have a header for each interview, perhaps Word will create a usable TOC. I haven't tried using a Word-created TOC, though.

I think if you have Word output a 'filtered html' file and then run it through HTML-tidy with the appropriate options, you can get a (set of) fairly clean html file(s) to convert to epub. It does take some hand editing with regexes, as I recall.
