If you're talking about multiple servers sharing the same repository then
yes, in theory (using LockServer to keep them in sync).  If you're talking
about synchronising multiple repositories then no, that can't be done.

CVSNT isn't CPU bound though it's I/O bound, so you won't get any
performance increase (in fact it'll be slower since you'd have to have the
repository on a network share with all the problems that causes).
