Hi,
I'm not sure, if there is any possibility to do this with cdo. I would use the netcdf Operators (NCO) for this purpose instead. See here for details and download:
Installing this package will offer you a selection of shell based commands for basic operations on netcdf files. ncdump anynetcdffile will dump the content of a netcdf file to stdout. If you rearrange your data in the same manner, store it in anyfile.ascii and then do "ncgen -o out.nc < anyfile.ascii", you would get what you want.
regards,
Ralf
