On less than two processors, no.  If a processor is designed a
particular way, it is possible for it to trace two rays at once, but it
would be far more trouble than it's worth; the rendering engive would
almost certainly have to be rewritten directly in assembler, and I doubt
the POV team is interested in doing that.
