No; the geocoder does what it does. You can specify "Cambridge" and
get Cambridge MA, or "Cambridge, UK" or "Cambridge, NY" and get
relevant results. If you want to get *every* Cambridge, you need to
use something else:

http://ws.geonames.org/search?q=cambridge (defaults to 100 results;
maximum specified with maxrows= is 1000)
