Yes it is possible.  It is even possible to have 
different MRTGs running at different intervals with 
separate configs.  You just need to tell MRTG what 
config to use.

One problem I see with the way Brett does it is that 
if you put anything other than WorkDir (like IconDir), 
you need all the special Dir directives.  Having 
WorkDir overrides everything else.  

I do a little of both.  I have a few MRTGs running, 
each with a separate config.  Most are built with 
included files, which makes administration a TON 
easier.

I find the easiest way to maintain my setup is to have a very basic and short 
mrtg.cfg (defining WorkDir and a few other options) and then have seperate 
configuration files for different hosts/routers and use the "Include" global 
parameter. So my mrtg.cfg looks like:

--
WorkDir: /var/www/html/mrtg/
IconDir: /var/www/html/mrtg/
Refresh: 300
Include: /usr/local/mrtg-2.9.25/mrtg-rrd-host1.cfg
Include: /usr/local/mrtg-2.9.25/mrtg-rrd-host2.cfg
Include: /usr/local/mrtg-2.9.25/mrtg-rrd-host3.cfg
Include: /usr/local/mrtg-2.9.25/mrtg-rrd-router1.cfg
Options[_]: bits,growright
RunAsDaemon: Yes
PathAdd: /usr/local/rrdtool-1.0.39/bin/
LibAdd: /usr/local/rrdtool-1.0.39/lib/perl/
LogFormat: rrdtool
--

Then I use "14all.cgi" to view the different configuration files. Very simple 
to setup and once setup, requires no further administering.

Oh, almost forgot, you can only define 1 WorkDir (as its a global parameter) 
but you can specify different directories for the files). It's all outlined in 
the manual.
