I was not able to find a workaround like the suggestion in your last post.

We have to output posts in a loop sorted by category on archive page of a custom taxonomy.

I was able to output the correct posts in a loop like:

<!-- Start the Loop. -->
 <?php if ( have_posts() ) : while ( have_posts() ) : the_post(); ?>

 	<!-- Test if the current post is in category 534. -->
 	<!-- If it is, the div box is given the CSS class "post-cat-three". -->
 	<!-- Otherwise, the div box is given the display:none. -->

 	<?php if ( in_category( '534' ) ) : ?>
 		<div class="post-cat-three">
 	<?php else : ?>
 		<div style="display:none;">
 	<?php endif; ?>

 	<!-- Display the Title as a link to the Post's permalink. -->
<?php echo get_secondary_title(); ?>
 	<h2><a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link to <?php the_title_attribute(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h2>

 	</div> <!-- closes the first div box -->

 	<!-- Stop The Loop (but note the "else:" - see next line). -->

 <?php endwhile; else : ?>

 	<!-- The very first "if" tested to see if there were any Posts to -->
 	<!-- display.  This "else" part tells what do if there weren't any. -->
 	<p><?php esc_html_e( 'Sorry, no posts matched your criteria.' ); ?></p>

 	<!-- REALLY stop The Loop. -->
 <?php endif; ?>

The loop outputs only relevant posts from one category and hides via css all other categories.
This seems to work well.

Can we do the same in WPSP?

I don't think that's possible with WPSP. You shouldn't actually need WPSP if you have the loop working like that.
