Slightly longer answer: maybe, depending on definitions?

Whilst RT has a notion of a single domain, you are free to route emails
from other domains into the system (and have queues set up to respond
with those addresses). Together with the fine-grained permissions model,
and the subject tags on queues it may be possible to configure a single
RT instance which would meet the OP's requirements (although I guess
user admin would be the one sticking point, so it might be necessary
to arrange for a separate user provisioning add-on to support the
specific use cases).

Efficiencies in administration overhead and hardware requirements
(depending on the relative volume of transactions, of course) are two
that spring to mind immediately.
