AFAIK this is not possible. At least not with facilities built into
org-mode. You might have luck writing a source for auto-complete, but
this might be more effort than it is worth.

If you are not planning to export your document, but merely want to
manage some data in a tableish fashion inside your Emacs/Org setup, you
may find (info "(Org) Column View") of some help. You can define a
NAME_ALL property which lists the specific items.

HTH,
