Maybe. It depends on how you define it. Think about Basecamp for an example. 
Each user of that system logs into their own subdomain and manages their own 
data, without ever being able to access or see any other user's data. Yet if 
you are the owners of Basecamp, you think of it as one big site, with many 
users. Each user can make changes to the application that govern how it will 
appear to their clients, and that doesn't affect another user's clients' view 
of the site. Think about the most popular Gem in this arena -- it's named 
Apartment. What does an apartment have? Individual rooms where renters can 
change whatever they like without affecting anyone else in the building. Yet 
the owner thinks of it as one big building.

So it's philosophical first, and then practical. What is the application you 
are trying to build? Is it meant for one client, or many users, each with their 
own group of sub-users? Or something else?
