Yes you could do that in Call to Power. You could do something similar in Civ 2 Test of Time expansion. It allowed up to 4 maps, layered on top of each other, to exist in one game. It had a fantasy mode where the maps were the surface world, a subterranean world, the cloud layer (for hawkmen races and such), and the sea floor layer. There was also a sci fi mode where one map was the starting planet. The next was the orbit, where there were ancient platforms built by a long gone race. There was then a mars-like planet and a gas giant to travel to. It was extremely fun. Too bad it, and everything else, added in the Test of Time expansion was canned for Civ 3, other than animated units... Stupid egotistical Sid Meier...

I remember buying those expansion sets, but I don't ever recall playing them. Maybe Call to Power came out shortly after I got my pc, and I started playing that instead. I just don't remember. Never played Call to Power 2, because my old pc didn't meet the hardware requirements. Now I play Civ 3. I recently discovered a forum site where people have made fantasy mods and star wars mods, so I might try those out in the future. But the mods are so huge, it might take me awhile to get them.
