No. OpenSSL has the locking callback functions so it can protect internal
structures. For example, if two SSL objects internally reference the
objects.

Then when wouldn't it be safe to share the object? The locking callback
functions are required for all multithreaded applications or else OpenSSL
can't protect its internal state.
