Not sure if i understand you correctly. A slave is only a logical unit, it has not to be a physical machine. You can have multiple slaves running on one host, without interfering each other. So, every master can have as many slave as you want on any hosts, as long as each slave (not host) has its own root-fs. Then it does not matter hou many hosts you have, you can have 5 *independent* jenkins master-slave cluster across your build farm, each one does not care (does not know) the existence of other clusters. You can share all the hardware resources of you 20 hosts, the slave configuration is totally orthognal.
So you can share the hardware resources across 5 independent clasters, each has (theoretically) as many slaves as necessary. but if you want to share the (logical unit) *slave*, i dont think it is possible, even it is, i can not find any reason to do so.
