Yes, that's possible, at least if you store the tables for each forum in the same database. If you have several forum installations, make sure each forum shares the same userdata table. All forum installations should have the same userdata_table in /config/db_settings.php:

$db_settings['userdata_table'] = "yourpreferredtable";
