You can run as many jmeter-server.bat machines as you like. Add them all to the jmeter.properties file on the GUI machine and you can control them all. All their data should be collected and combined into the visualizers. So, yes, you can run 5, 10, whatever. That's the point - to allow heavier load testing.
