Not with imshow, but something might be possible with contourf3d.  I haven't
tried it out in this way, but with the development branch of matplotlib, I
recently added a feature to be able to "squash" contourf plots to a
particular offset.  See this demo image:

With this feature, you could contourf3d 2D slices of your 3D data and just
set the zoffset to the appropriate location.  I attached some demo code.
The data is only 2D, so I can't demonstrate exactly  what you want, but this
should give you a good idea of where to go.

Remember, this feature is new, and is only found in the master branch on
github.

I hope this helps!
