No, CF MX doesn't support dynamic datasources at all, to the best of my knowledge. As I see it, your options are: 1. Rewrite the functionality to work with MX. 2. Use something else for this functionality (CF 5, ASP, etc.) 3. Find a different way to solve the problem. For example, why do databases need to be renamed?
