Non-Join Multi PF Logical File Format

Can a COBOL program work with a non-join logical file record format which references more than one PF (more than one PF in the DDS PFILE entry) ?  I know RPG programs can NOT compile if they reference such a file.  For example ...
 
Physical File named "A"
     A          R AREC              
     A            FLD1           1A 
Physical File named "B"  (In this case the entire record format for file AA is identical to that of file A)
     A          R BREC             
     A            FLD1           1A 
Logical File named ABLF
Non-Join Multi-PF Logical File Format (in this case the only format in the LF)
     A          R AREC                      PFILE(A B)
     A          K FLD1
