I believe so, eg:

   echo 128 > /sys/module/qla2xxx/parameters/ql2xmaxqdepth

(In general the files under /sys/module/<module>/parameters that are
writeable are those than can be changed dynamically.)

modinfo qla2xxx says (among other things):

 ql2xmaxqdepth:Maximum queue depth to report for target devices.

I believe that each target corresponds to a /dev/sdX rather than each
multiply-connected LUN.
