The JIRA documentation does not mention a way to create a nested table something like
|outer-col1|outer-col2| |col1 val1||inner-col1|inner-col2| |icol1 val1|icol2 val1| |icol1 val2|icol2 val2| |col1 val2||col2 val2|
(or) atleast something where I can span a multiple rows for a column value
i.e.
|outer-col1|outer-col2|outer-col-3 |col1 val1 |col2 val1a|col3 val1a| |col2 val1b|col3 val1b| |col1 val2||col2 val2 |col3 val2 |
The only way I can span now is to have empty values in the column and have the reader assume that it represents the previous rows value for that column.

Found a way around to make nested tables at below linked page https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Confluence-questions/Nested-table-in-wiki-markup-Confluence-4/qaq-p/18355
The solutions suggest many tags that can be used to achieve this. A simple one is {panel}
tag. Just wrap the Inner table inside two {panel}
tags.
Below is a sample and its result
Sample
||Tabe1Column1||Table1Column2||
|item1.1|item1.2|
|item2.1|Sub table {panel}
||Table2Coumn1||Table2Column2||
|sub item1.1|sub item 1.2|
|sub item 2.1|sub item 2.2|{panel}|

No, this is not supported in JIRA out of the box.
However, the JEditor add-on that is available on the marketplace does support this.
Since JEditor replaces JIRA's wiki editor it can have quite some impact on a JIRA instance, depending on how your users are used to work with mark-up. It can also affect other add-ons, so best to test properly before buying.
