Assign answer choices to groups with columns

I want to have a question with the answer choices assigned to groups so there are headers for each category the choices fall under. This is possible if the choices are positioned vertically but I want them to be in columns. Is there any way to achieve the same look of having headers for these choices but keeping them as a column? Maybe with Javascript? The question is a multiple select that serves as a pick list to identify which products the respondent will be surveyed on.
