. . . make some kind of a utility that would allow the player to change what civ he's playing in mid-game? For instance you start the game as one civ, then save it, then using this new utility, change to one of the other civs and start the game again, etc etc?
Would anyone be able to . . .

There was that cheat option in Civ2MPGE, wasn't there? I tried not to cheat at all, but couldn't resist a few times. I haven't heard of any cheats for Civ3, but I'm sure someone will find a way.
Good luck.
BTW, did you use that cheat often?

I am pretty sure this is already possible.
Zhura's save edit utility I am thinking can do this...have a look around "Apolyton civ3 files section" and OUR better "Civ3 Utility" section.

New SAV Game Editor - TCG
Here's the latest TCG Editor v1.01 for Civ III saved games. Here's a list of the features:
Change victory conditions
Change forced retirement date
Modify treasury gold for all civs in game
Reveal the entire world map
Works with versions 1.07f and 1.16f (pre and post-patch)
Change the Player's Civ
New in version 1.01:Change the random seed stored in the game
The zip file has 2 files in it, the executable and a help file. The help file is a little thin right now, but it's there for future expansion. There is NO UNDO function, so be sure to save edited files under a new name. I don't recommend editing important SAV files and saving right back over them.
All you have to do is unzip the 2 files into the same directory anywhere you like and create a shortcut to the executable file on your desktop.
The editor is statically linked, making it a little big in size, but with all the different versions of Windows out there now I figured it might be better to avoid any dependencies on installed VC++ runtime DLLs. As a result, it should work on all versions of Windows that Civ3 itself does."
In case I never got the file correctly from Apolyton here is the download link from there:
