Currently no, clamd doesn't allow you to specify multiple DBdirs either. There would be a problem with multiple database directories, because local.ign, daily.c[vl]d/daily.ign, and daily.c[vl]d/daily.cfg *must* be loaded first. With a single database directory, the engine ensures this, with multiple directories it can't, and it would be up to you to ensure that the dir containing the daily.cvd and your local.ign comes first. I think that would be too complicated, given the alternative: you could symlink or copy all databases into a single directory.
