Not only is it possible, this is the only currently recommended and
supported method of backing up to DVDs using Bacula:  Back up to a disk
pool configured for a maximum Volume size of 4.7GB (9.4GB for dual-layer
DVDs), then separately write the resulting volumes to DVDs.  Direct DVD
writing in Bacula was deprecated because it could not be made to work
reliably.
