Short answer: No.  Max GDG limit is 255.

A GDG dataset with the NOEMPTY,NOSCRATCH in an SMS managed environment will
recatalog entries over the limit to a rolled-off status.  These datasets
will no longer be associated with the GDG base.

Entries not associated with a GDG base will NOT be automatically
concatenated when the related GDG base is used as a family.

You will also have to delete rolled-off datasets defined as noempty,
noscratch via some type of utility.
