I use this technique frequently with good results. One machine has been able to host slaves from different masters for me so long as I assign a different directory to each slave. In my case, I include the name of the master in the slave directory path so that I will now which master is using that directory based on the path to the slave directory.
/var/lib/jenkins/markwaite2-slave/ is the path (on the slave) for a slave that is serving the markwaite2 Jenkins master.
