Yes. There should be only one main kdeinit process per KDE instance (which usually means 1, unless you run e.g. KDE2 + 3 in parallel), but several others for kdeinit'ed applications (strictly spoken: application-like libraries) which make use of the feature which kdeinit mainly provides: library preloading. This is one of the ways to avoid long startup times. There's a README file in $kdecvs/kdelibs/kinit. Look with ps ...f to view the kdeinit tree (or use ksysguard).
