Yes, this would surely work.
However replicating the testsuite (some of my testsuites include more than 100 
different requests) many times results in awkward, hard to maintain jmx files, 
hence the need for more elegant solution.
A desireable solution for me would include the following enhancement 
(properties) on the Thread Group panel:
- number of threads to start with
- thread increasement (after elapsed time T or after N loops has finished)
- maximal thread count
If I recall correctly there exist interest in the group for such an enhancement.

a simple option is this

test plan -
   - thread group (delay 1000)
   - thread group (delay 5000)
   - thread group (delay 10000)
