Yes you can, however make sure the apps dont rely on a shared dependancy. Another trick I do (courtesy of PL) is emerge -f appname in one terminal and then in another actually emerge samepackagename. However normally this is only good to do in doing emerge system or world as most packages don't require the long times as these two do.
Oh be sure and always do an env-update and source /etc/profile if you start emerging in multiple terminals!!
