Yes, it is.
,----[ C-h v display-buffer-reuse-frames RET ]
| display-buffer-reuse-frames is a variable defined in `window.el'.
| Its value is nil
|
| This variable is obsolete since 24.3;
| use a `reusable-frames' alist entry in `display-buffer-alist'.
|
| Documentation:
| Non-nil means `display-buffer' should reuse frames.
| If the buffer in question is already displayed in a frame, raise
| that frame.
|
| You can customize this variable.
|
| This variable was introduced, or its default value was changed, in
| version 21.1 of Emacs.

,----[ C-h v display-buffer-alist RET ]
| display-buffer-alist is a variable defined in `window.el'.
| Its value is nil
|
| This variable may be risky if used as a file-local variable.
|
| Documentation:
| Alist of conditional actions for `display-buffer'.
| This is a list of elements (CONDITION . ACTION), where:
|
| CONDITION is either a regexp matching buffer names, or a
| function that takes two arguments - a buffer name and the
| ACTION argument of `display-buffer' - and returns a boolean.
|
| ACTION is a cons cell (FUNCTION . ALIST), where FUNCTION is a
| function or a list of functions. Each such function should
| accept two arguments: a buffer to display and an alist of the
| same form as ALIST. See `display-buffer' for details.
|
| `display-buffer' scans this alist until it either finds a
| matching regular expression or the function specified by a
| condition returns non-nil. In any of these cases, it adds the
| associated action to the list of actions it will try.
|
| You can customize this variable.
|
| This variable was introduced, or its default value was changed, in
| version 24.1 of Emacs.

Wow, quite complex. But I think this is the value you want:
(setq display-buffer-alist
'((".*" . (display-buffer-reuse-window . ((reusable-frames .
visible))))))
Tested only briefly, though.
Bye,
Tassilo
