I would advise against using multiple H1 tags on the page. Instead, Oleg's approach could work.
Just replicate it as you wish and use CSS to make it look the same.
Of course, doing this across every page on your site may seem a little spammy.

RE: Excessive internal links. Should I remove the footer links?posted in Algorithm Updates
Google has declared war against the practice of excessive internal linking - which is why SEOmoz warns you about these excessive links within its tools.
Is it going to get you de-indexed? Maybe not. But as Google comes down harder on these practices it could certainly affect your ranking.
Having links for navigation is recommended, but taking up 1/3 of the page with footer links is obviously not benefiting the end user.

RE: Using a non-visible H1posted in Technical SEO
The general SEO community consensus is that you should:
A. be doing what is best for the user (so not concealing the H1 tag)
B. not doing anything that could make Matt Cutts and the Google team upset
They have advised against attempting to conceal content for SEO gain so I would strongly recommend avoiding it. They have been dealing with these issues now for a LONG time, so presumably their bots can easily pick up on those tricks.
The Google bots can now "see" what is visible on the page. They discount things that are not in the visible content area so the benefit to an offset H1 would likely be none. Also: They're watching you.
