You can use ANY character set, but you will only be able to use one per installation. The character set is defined in config.php as follows (for example):
$config_charset = "UTF-8";
It would be very tricky to modify the code to handle multiple character sets on one site. Whilst in theory the product pages could be modified to use a different character set based on the character set of the source feed, you need to consider search result pages which combine information from multiple feeds - so at some point there does have to be resolution down into a single character set (per site).
