Is it possible to make colspan in DataTables?

I have the following structure in PHP that implements a table:

foreach ($varConsulta as $lin) {
    $var1= $varConsulta[$i]['1'];
    $var2= $varConsulta[$i]['2'];
    $var3= $varConsulta[$i]['3'];
    $varFase= $varConsulta[$i]['FASE'];

    $linhas = "";
    $linhas .= "<td style='padding: 10px;'>" . utf8_encode($var1) . "</td>";
    $linhas .= "<td style='padding: 10px;'>" . utf8_encode($var2) . "</td>";
    $linhas .= "<td style='padding: 10px;'>" . utf8_encode($var3) . "</td>";

    switch ($varFase) {
        case 1:
            $linhas .= "<td colspan='2'>ALUNO NÃO APROVADO</td>";
            break;
        case 2:
            $linhas .= "<td style='padding: 10px;'><select id='".$var1."' name='".$var1."'><option value=''></option><option value='1'>SIM</option><option value='0'>NÃO</option></select></td>";
            $linhas .= "<td style='text-align: center;'><a href='#' onclick='comparecimento(".$var1.")' class='Adicionar' title='Adicionar'>.</a></td>";
            break;
        case 3:
            $linhas .= "<td colspan='2'>AGUARDANDO RESULTADO</td>";
            break;
    }

    echo "<tr>" . $linhas . "</tr>";
    $i++;
}

I wonder if there is a dataTable setting that allows column concatenation in corpo da tabela , not header

Here is the default setting I use in dataTable :

if ($("#lst").length){

    $("#lst").dataTable( {
        "bJQueryUI" : true,
        "sPaginationType" : "full_numbers",
        "iDisplayLength": 10
    });
}
