I am not aware of this capability. The mapping file is an XML file and this does not support conditions as far as I can tell.

Can xslt be used instead of xml?

I have never seen the ability to configure an XSLT in the import, so I think no. You can not use an XSLT file, because the mapping is read by the importer in the required format and than the mapping data read is used internally during the import.

What you could do:
- create a XSLT with the necessary business conditions
- Transform the existing CSV with this XSLT 
- Create 1-1 Mapping and import

Step 1 is fine . I have have a doubt for step 2 and 3 . Shall I give XSLT file as an input in custom data mapping field ? I mean am not not sure where wld XSLT wld be used while imporing ?

As I said above, there is no place to do so in the wizard. You would have to run XSLT manually on your CSV file and create new CSV file(s) with the correct data, that you can then import.

 Why cannot you condition/process your data as per the business condition using macros prior to importing?
