This should not be a problem.  You define what makes a headline a
contact for you by specifying `org-contacts-matcher'.  And
`org-contacts-files' is a list of file names you want org-contacts to
consider whilst looking for contacts.

I never used BBDB, so I am not sure what you mean by "groups".
Org-contacs has a notion of groups in a sense that you can tag your
contact headlines and every headline with the same tag is considered to
be in the same group.  This can be used when you are composing a mail to
many people, as you can do this by simply stating the relevant tag name.
