Thomas,

Yes.  In /etc/modules.conf you define:
alias iucv0 netiucv
alias iucv1 netiucv
alias iucv2 netiucv
...
alias iucvN netiucv
options     netiucv     iucv=userid0:userid1:userid2:...:useridN


And in the CP directory you can define 'IUCV ALLOW' in all your linux
servers to allow every other vm userid on your system to connect to this
linux server, or you define a list of authorized servers that may connect
to your server (if you want to be more restrictive):
IUCV userid0
IUCV userid1
IUCV userid2
...
IUCV useridN

And of course you'll have to add an 'IUCV your_linux_userid' to the
directories of userid0 .. useridN to authorize it the other way around too.

You normally would not give 'IUCV ANY'.  That authorisation will give your
linux server the ability to make an iucv connection to every other userid
on your system.  Though if you have a central router that connects all
other linux servers to the outside world, it might be convenient to give
that route both 'IUCV ALLOW' and 'IUCV ANY' and leave the other directories
without an IUCV statement.
