NO, unfortunately transactions cannot span over cfc's (or cffunction's for that matter)
And if MM listens I have voted for this one over and over again. I think this severely limits the use of cfc's in any transactional process. I really hope that this will be address in Updater 3 (I am saying this for the last two updaters...) At least MM should say if they intend to do it or not and if yes in what time frame.
