Yes, you can.

If you configure Polygraph to create aliases run-time, then make sure
the second process you start (should be polyclt) is using
"--delete_old_addrs no" option so that the aliases created by the
first process remain intact.

If you create aliases yourself before starting Polygraph, then no
special tricks are needed, I think.

You can read more about Polygraph addressing schemes at
 http://www.web-polygraph.org/docs/userman/address.html

PolyMix-4 is more difficult to setup than PolyMix-1, but it is a
much better workload. For help with PolyMix-4 setup see:

Depending on your needs, you may want to disable DNS in PolyMix-4 to
simplify your setup further.
