I would also assume this to be possible.  In fact, I imagine that
since you would just be adding more disks to your worm, this would
simply be a matter of updating the cwfs configuration from:

filsys main c(/dev/sdC0/fscache)(/dev/sdC0/fsworm)
filsys dump o

to:

filsys main c(/dev/sdC0/fscache)("/dev/sdC0/fsworm""/dev/sdC1/fsworm"..."/dev/sdCN/fsworm")
filsys dump o

This syntax is somewhat documented in fsconfig(8) but I did have to
look at the code to work out how to use the quotes in order to
concatenate devices.  I think I got it right, but...

Please note that I have not tried this.  Do please make backups before
proceeding.  No refunds.
