Not using the wizard. The wizard expects you to either transfer the table
in full which in turn allows you to import/export many tables or it expects
you to enter a query which in turn means you move only one table.

You may be best handling this on the Source. Maybe you could write views of
the tables that only selected the top 10 rows by your criteria.
