Consider the following.  The value of company-backends should
be a list.   Would (list (mapcar #'intern backends-seltr))
give a list to the function argument?

(defun cbackends (actm-seqr)
  "Set value for `company-backends' for `company-mode'.
Allowing multiple selectors using comma-separated."

  (interactive
    (let* ( (cseq '("company-dabbrev" "company-dabbrev-code" "company-keywords"
                    "company-capf" "company-yasnippet" "company-files"))

            (backends-seltr
                (completing-read-multiple
                  "Backends Multi-Seltr (comma-separated): "
                  cseq nil t)))

      (list (mapcar #'intern backends-seltr))))

    ;; Convert selected backends to symbols and set them
    (setq company-backends actm-seqr) )
