Yes -- but only if you use TAP, or define some custom test protocol that
can do so.  More info:
<http://www.gnu.org/software/automake/manual/automake.html#Using-the-TAP-test-protocol>
<http://www.gnu.org/software/automake/manual/automake.html#Custom-Test-Drivers>
Both these approaches require Automake 1.12 or later though.

A band-aid solution is to have a test script automatically generated for each
configuration you have to support.  This might also offer better performances
with concurrent make (and if your per-configuration tests are not fast, this
might indeed become the preferred solution).
