At least from a KERNAL point of view: Yes.

Of course, you could put more logic into the C64 side and let it handle
the floppy on a block basis. In this case, it would be possible to have
more than 3 files open at a time with just one drive. Anyhow, you would
need to double some code of the floppy (if you want to handle the disk
in the same way as the DOS does).
