Make sure the Simple products are before the Configurable in the csv file.

W631-FPWT-1
W631-FPWT-7
W631-FPWT-8
W631-FPWT-4
W631-FPWT

Simple products are imported before configurable products, my question is that same simple products should assign to the multiple configurable products, simple products are assigning to only the config product (W631-FPWT), so above simple products should also assign to config products like W631-FPWT-7, W631-FPWT-8, W631-FPWT-4 which is not assigning.
Please let me know what is the issue.

So all the products below are configurable?
W631-FPWT-1
W631-FPWT-7
W631-FPWT-8
W631-FPWT-4
W631-FPWT

If so you have to assign the simple products before each configurable ie
product 1-A (Simple)
product 1-B (Simple)
product 1 (Configurable)
product 2-A (Simple)
product 2-B (Simple)
product 2 (Configurable)
product 3-A (Simple)
product 3-B (Simple)
product 3 (Configurable)
etc., etc.

If you are trying to assign the same simple products to multiple configurables then I have never tried this. However, as a thought, you may have to duplicate the simples to the configurables in the format above and set import mode for Magmi to "Create New Items and Update Existing Ones"

I can confirm my suggested method works for assigning the same simples to multiple configurables.
Import mode ""Create New Items and Update Existing Ones"
You need to assign in the following format.
W631-FPWT-8A
W631-FPWT-8B
W631-FPWT-8 (Configurable)
W631-FPWT-4A
W631-FPWT-4B
W631-FPWT-4 (Configurable)
W631-FPWT-8A
W631-FPWT-8B
W631-FPWT-4A
W631-FPWT-4B
W631-FPWT (Configurable)

I would suggest running a small import on a test server and checking the frontend results.
