it's possible in mapserver since version 6.2 : http://mapserver.org/development/rfc/ms-rfc-80.html . Note that there's a hardcoded limit of 4 fallbacks font (1 main font + 4 fallbacks). In mapserver 7.0 this limit will be lifted, and it will also be possible to prioritize which font to use for a specific script ("script" is more or less equivalent to "language")
