I’m not 100% sure, if this is what you’re trying to archieve, but I think multiItemsGridTv (MIGX) for modX revolution is what you want.

From the docs:

MIGX (multiItemsGridTv for modx) is a custom-tv-input-type for adding
multiple items into one TV-value and a snippet for listing this items
on your frontend.

It has a configurable grid and a configurable tabbed
editor-window to add and edit items. Each item can have multiple
fields.

For each field you can use another tv-input-type.

Essentially, you can make up a set of multiple different template variables (including images), that always belong together. If you then assign your MIGX tv to a template, you can enter as much of these sets as needed per resource.

You can download it via package management or from the modX Extras Repository.
