Yes it's possible you could try this :

table = "<table>
<tr>
<td><strong>date</strong></td>
<td>2009-12-31</td>
<td>2009-09-30</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><strong>asset</strong></td>
<td>580</td>
<td> 680</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><strong>cash</strong></td>
<td>1,693</td>
<td>1,777</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><strong>finance</strong></td>
<td>201</td>
<td>2497</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><strong>note</strong></td>
<td>500</td>
<td>700</td>
</tr>
</table>"

parser = Nokogiri::HTML(table)
result = [ ]
parser.css("table tr td").each_with_index do |td, i|
  result[i%3] ||= ""
  result[i%3] << "#{td.content};"
end

puts result
>>"date;asset;cash;finance;note;"
"2009-12-31;580;1,693;201;500;"
"2009-09-30; 680;1,777;2497;700;"
