Yes. If you are using manual install, then it should just work because you will be having one Ranger Admin/Portal install and you will be installing the Ranger plugins on each component on all the clusters.
If you are using Ambari, then you can have Ranger Portal on one of the clusters and all the components within the cluster will be automatically configured. But for your other clusters, you will have to manually install/configure the Ranger plugins. This might be little painful, but it should be able to do it with some hacks on the Ambari side. There is one caveat. The users/groups should be the same in each cluster.
