I am not sure.  I would assume so even though the documentation 
suggests support for only installing libraries to two standard 
locations.  GNU coding standards (and Autotools) proposes and supports 
certain standards, but it is possible to go beyond those standards.

It should also be possible to provide different CFLAGS and CPPFLAGS 
for objects built for those libraries (e.g for different CPU targets), 
even if they start from the same source files.

Give it a try and find out!
