Yes, using the #while...#end Directive:
#declare CountZ=0;
#while (CountZ < 5)
#declare CountY=0;
#while (CountY < 5)
object{Cylinder_X translate <0, CountY*3, CountZ*3>}
#declare CountY=CountY+1;
#end
#declare CountZ=CountZ+1;
#end

PS: The group povray.programming is for discussing the POV-Ray source code,
not scene creation problems. I have cross-posted this to povray.newusers.
