Using a remote database server on separate Plesk installs

New Pleskian
Is it possible to use a remote database server on two or more Plesk installations without issue?

Plesk A (192.168.1.1):
  • Local MySQL (default)
  • Remote A MySQL (192.168.1.5)
Plesk B (192.168.1.2):
  • Local MySQL (default)
  • Remote A MySQL (192.168.1.5)
... etc etc. Is that possible? It'll allow me to create databases on the remote server from both/all the Plesk servers without conflict?

Why not if you will not use the same database names. Perhaps performance issues of such a decision may arise.
