No.  One CF LPAR per parallel sysplex.  However, you can create more
than one CF LPAR.   Even with a single engine you can create more than one
CF LPAR and share that  engine.  As long as you weren't using it for true
data sharing (like DB2) you would be just fine (especially with the speed of z9 
and z10 engines).   I've worked in quite a few sites set up with "priceplex" aka
"shamplex" that worked quite well with multiple CF LPARs sharing engines. 

Of course the standard YMMV disclaimer applies.
