Multiple categories with simple csv upload

Is it possible to specify multiple categories for a product using the simple csv import? When I exported the products as a csv, ones with multiple categories used | as a separator (for example, “category 1 | category 2”). However, when I imported using the same separator, it created a new category, “category 1 | category 2”. Is there any way to do this properly?
