No go. At least if you're considering the MySQL backend. GnuCash doesn't use it except as a store. It reads the whole thing into RAM just like with XML. One day it is hoped to be a true db based app, but that is still many moons away.
Therefore, you won't get any lockout benefits from the db format itself. (but you should still have GnuCash take out a lockfile when you access it from the first machine, just like with XML)
