Something like
<ItemGroup>
<MyFiles Include="..\..\..\Binaries\assembly1.dll" />
<MyFiles Include="assembly2.dll" />
<MyFiles Include="..\..\..\assembly3.dll" />
</ItemGroup>
<Copy SourceFiles="@(MyFiles)" DestinationFolder="$(OutDir)">
</Copy>
e.g. in target <Target Name="BeforeBuild">
should do that job.
For relative referencing MSBuild should starts from the wixproj directory.
