yes, you can build RPM files, but i've never done it and i'm afraid i don't know anything about it :o( if you are planning to run cdrtools on two different machines, i'd suggest compiling the source separatedly for both of them. anyway, if the two computers are alike, ( processor, OS, devices ) it should be fine....
