I do this and it does work!
Eg, smb.conf with:

        interfaces = eth0:1
        bind interfaces only =
True                                                                                                                                             

and multiple instances of samba running at the same machine
with different netbios names.
(You may, for instance,  want to have a separate _public_ printer server
...)
