yes, since version 4.3 you can do that like this:
  Include "/etc/collectd.d/*.conf"

Other shell-wildcards work, too. Version 4.2 can only include single
files, though.

To include the entire directory, including all subdirectories and
(almost) all[1] files within there anywhere, you can simply specify the
directory. This is a new feature in 4.3, too.
  Include "/etc/collectd.d"
