Yes, you can definitely have multiple elements with the same name at
the same level. Then in general you will use an <xforms:repeat> to
iterate over those elements and create as many form fields as
necessary depending on how many <DNA-DATANARR> you end up having in
the XML.

I am not sure to understand: you are saying that those elements are
going to be in the "XML you import". So this means that they will end
up in an instance, right? How would that be a problem?
