I think so.
You need a wins-server in your network, if you have different
networks. If you already have a Windows WINS-Server, you can use
samba as wins-server.
I have tested samba tng, 1 week ago, in such a environment. 
I had a samba tng server acting as pdc, on a solaris machine with
2 ip numbers from different networks. I could use the samba
server from both networks. The samba tng server was also WINS
server. You need a WINS server to get a complete browselist. YOu
must have a working routing, because the samba server anounces
itself to winsserver under his first ip-address. 
Hope this helps! Beat if i'm wrong.
