Certainly. It is the only correct solution.

Probably, I broke address selection algorithm, trying to solve exactly
this problem 8)8)8)
But generally:
Gated selects the numerically greatest address from the list of enabled ones.
If you have more than one address on link you have to select
"primary" address on all OSPF speakers and enable OSPF only on it.
You MAY enable OSPF on different subnets of the device, but in this case,
they must use different authentication keys: it is the only valid way
to differ them.
