In short no, Kodi does not currently process custom tags, although it is something I have been thinking about as a new feature one day (and there are some threads discussing it).
However Kodi does process a lot of tags, and in the meantime it could well be possible to make use of the ones it does process to achieve the categorisation of your music collection that you want.
Personally I do a lot with genre, it is not ideal, but does provide something that Kodi uses for primary navigation, and is implemented in the remote apps like Kore, iOS Remote and Yatse too. There is also the comment tag. There is also the album (release) type, populated from tags in v17, is used as a filter and can be any text you like.
