Yes, but you should keep some things in mind.
If you plan to encode a set of ranges on each CPU, you should consider some things, like scene detection etc. So that the last frame per segment, is the last scene just before a scene change, and the next frame is another completely different scene. That should be the start frame for another CPU. This way, you'll maximize compression per set.
Hope you understand what I mean
