The correct way of storing time-series data in a RDBMS (mysql, postgres...)
is channels in cols and data in rows only. Typically RDBMSs can handle
millions of rows but not columns. Imagine running your
data acquisition over years. Also updating a single row with channels in
rows will be a nightmare and may not be even possible.

No you cannot. If you are writing a full fledged php application, you can
query the data normally, load it into an array and transpose it to get the
required results. Take a look at this:

If you only want to present data (manually), install phpmyadmin and export
your required data (got through a SQL query or search option) to Excel
formal. Load this excel file, copy the required cells and use the
paste-special>Transpose function.
