For network edition, yes.

Parallelism is a networker server property, so it's shared across all
storage nodes.  

In fact, I think having a storage node is not a requirement, only that
you have a storage node *license*.  So with power edition and a couple
of storage node licences, you could have 128 sessions on a single
server.
