Importing Multiple Audio Tracks from iMovie

I have a movie that has been edited on iMovie and has multiple audio tracks and clips.  I would like to import the full video, with the multiple audio clips intact, into Sonar X1 (the equivalent of importing a "bundle" file).  In other words, I don't want just the stereo mixed audio to appear in Sonar.  Instead I'd like the multiple clips to import so that I can EQ, compress and mix them separately in sync with the video.  Is this possible or am I limited to importing a mixed stereo track?

Many thanks.

    Not possible. You'll only get the mixed stereo file. 
    Unless the program that the movie was created In can spit out the individual clips you're stuck.

    Just like Cakewalks bundle files are a proprietary format that only SONAR can decompress and load you'll find that it's the same with iMovie.
