Yes. Since its 'just' a set of cgi-bins,  then there's a variety
of easy ways of having leak-proof separation between different sets
of accounts.  Could be e.g. different URL's.  Could be based on the 
user login. Could be based on 'virtual home', so e.g. you could have
private-label/OEM branded web sites with diffferent look & feel
of course different data, all being served with same server.

There are even more tricks, won't bore you ... depends mostly on
patience, competency and paranoia level of sysadmin.
