Yes. You set this with the maximum concurrent jobs setting. Note you
may need to set this in 5 or more places in your configs depending on
the level of concurrency you want.

Its better to not do that.

Hello,

I'm curious to know why because I used to have this type of configuration in a disk based backup.
It had the advantage of flexibility (higher granularity and choice to put files on different partitions), and as just posted, it was a way to bypass the suggested limit of 1 concurrent job while using only one volume.
