If I understand correctly, you are wanting to attach some sub-assemblies to an assembly and have them part of a family table. When adding a component, you select the subassembly.

 

The constraints need to be independent from each other. If not, some assemblies will only appear when the subassembly to which they are constrained is present in the model.

 

Some will caution about using subassemblies with family tables call out in another family tables. It all depends on how complicated your parts are. I work frequently with family tables within family tables within family tables.
