No, you do just like Greg said:

    cvs co -r bar_branch -d QUX-Bar QUX
    cvs co -r baz_branch -d QUX-Baz QUX
    cvs co QUX

Although, I have no idea why you would want to.  In general, people work
on one branch at a time.  If they have changes that they need to make on
all the branches, they make them and merge the changes (or something
like that.)

Maybe I'm missing your point, but perhaps you're misusing branches.  In
general, branches are used for prod/dev revisions, and or releases and
bugfixes..
