no

an interface can only be in one vimage at a time.

Marko uses the netgraph bridge node (ng_bridge) and netgraph ng_eiface
nodes to 'bridge' a single interface to many virtual interfaces, and
then puts different virtual interfaces in each vimage.

Hopefully he can provide you with more detailed information on how he 
does this.
