1. Yes, this is supported by the flag definition functions with Array or Slice in their names. See the [reference docs](https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/spf13/pflag) for pflag.


2. A simple example below:
```
package main

import (
	"fmt"

	flag "github.com/spf13/pflag"
)

func main() {
	var flagvar []string
	flag.StringArrayVarP(&flagvar, "flag", "f", []string{}, "help msg")
	flag.Parse()
	fmt.Println("Flag slice:", flagvar)
}
```

```
>cmd -f a -f b -f c
Flag slice: [a b c]
```
