Yes.

Not sure what "entirely separate" means, if you can transfer tickets.
We do set up entirely separate instances (same core codebase, but
separate databases, separate config files, separate customized code
(of which there is little) for departments. But they are truly
separate, no transfer of tickets. I tell people I don't
want to set up multiple instances in a single department, in part
because they probably do want to transfer tickets, even if they
don't know it yet.
