Yes.  But set up the partitions first with a non-plan 9 tool.  The
current version of disk/fdisk (used in the installer) does not respect
boundaries of existing partitions.  If you allow it to edit the plan 9
partition, it is likely to rewrite the other partitions to align with
its notion of "cylinder" size.
