No, you can't include column formatting as part of a style. Have you
considered using a text box or frame for each heading that should
extend across several columns?

For more about columns, see

The columns are somewhat difficult to use in word, especially if you
want the
heading to span the entire page you have to select "from this point
on" in
the dialog box. Is it possible to have Columns as one of the
formatting
selections included with a style? Then you could click on Column 1
as your
style and the section is automatically formatted.
Thanks
