You can link the channels, so the audio is plumbed to multiple channels at once, and then control that behaviour using ACL rules, which results in a rather complicated system (the canonical example is a tree where squad leaders can talk to each other and their squad, but members in the squad can only hear each other and their commander). You can also whisper/"shout" to channels you're not in.


As far as the UI is concerned though, you're only ever in one channel at a time.

Full disclosure: I used to run a commercial Mumble host, and my opinions do not reflect the opinions of the Mumble project.
