No it doesn't. Compass can not magically change the rules of CSS. If CSS can't do it, Compass can't either.

CSS can do most of those n columns liquid layout or other complex design that people decide to use tables for. It's not a question of being able to do it or not in CSS, it's a question of how easy or hard it is to do it. And Compass makes it a great deal easier.

OK, I understand using it when it easier. But there are many things that tables can do that CSS can not do - at all (especially in a cross browser compatible way, but also just regular).
