I have two database clusters with 2 nodes each, distributed in different data centres in Amsterdam. The connection between the data centres and the office is a optics fibre "triangle" topology, specially designed to be low-latency. We also implement QoS on it, giving heartbeat packages between the servers the highest possible priority. There should be something like 30km of physical distance between the cluster nodes. If you can ensure that your ping latency is low enough to not trigger the cluster fail-over mechanisms, yes, you can use heartbeat over any kind of network you have. I recommend you to pay attention and not use "bcast" directives in your configuration. Instead, use "ucast" directives, they are better suited for your application.
