No -- because it breaks the main beam as well as the secondary one.

The attached PNG, produced with

\times 8/7 { c'8 \set \stemLeftBeamCount = #2 \set \stemRightBeamCount =
#1 c'16 c'8 c' }

shows what I'm looking for.

Again, I know I could just define a tweak to make the above shorter, but
I want to know if there's a way of automating the secondary beaming ... :-)
