yes it would be, but this is not supported by the kernel, what you can do is
mount one tray at a time, I use ascdc (for X, actually it was made for
afterstep's wharf) to change between trays, there are also some command line 
utilities, but I really can't remember their names.. :)  Infact, I can't 
remember the last time I used my cdrom at all, let alone the multiple 
trays..
