You could try to make a union that creates the result in that format.
Something like:

select col1, col2, col3, col4
from TheTable
union all
select col5, null, null, null
from TheTable

This will put all the col5 values at the end, so you would need to add
some kind of sorting to get them the way you wanted.

Alternatively, create a new DataTable and populate it by looping through
your original result and adding rows to the new DataTable.
