I think the answer to that is yes. Think of the scenario where multiple instances of the same entity bean live in separate VMs for fault tolerance and or scalability reasons. Of course I don't know if this will be a problem using weblogic, since in essence that's a single VM app server. Perhaps this can occur with their approach to clustering, but that's a guess only.
