In theory, yes... I never tried it, though. I'd use a run before job script to do the mounting, and a run after job script for unmounting. If mounting fails, the job will - preferrably - not be run. In any case, you'll probably want to use automatic labeling together with a limitation of the volume size and number in your pools.
