AFAIK, no, you can't do that, but you can have multiple servers on one server, so long as
they don't try and control the same data files.
Each server could use a different socket.

Subject: Can I have multiple sockets?
I have an application (Postfix) I want to run chrooted. When I do run it
chrooted it will not be able to "see" the MySQL UNIX domain socket at it's
default location. (I could use a TCP socket, but I don't want to...)
Is there a way I can tell MySQL to establish multiple sockets e.g. a socket
per database or would I have to run several instances of a MySQL server giving
each instance a different (socket) configuration?
I tried to figure that out myself and read the manual etc. but I couldn't come
up with an answer. Did I miss some documentation?
Thanks,
Patrick
