Yes. In particular, the Debian/Ubuntu package for Koha includes
control scripts that let you provision and manage multiple Koha
instances on a single server. When it comes to do an upgrade,
upgrading the package will trigger schema upgrades for every
configured instance.
It's a pity that the libraries can't or won't rebarcode, though -- if
there's any need or desire to transfer or share materials between the
locations, it would be easier to manage that in a single database.
Regards,
Galen
