Not really. This is simillar to the problem of trying to requantize
the stream. You could reuse some of the analysis i suppose, but when
you change the rate and dimensions you end up making different coding
decisions and the streams would diverge quickly.

One thing you can do is reuse the first-pass complexity analysis data
for multiple second-pass encodings at different rates. That will some
some time.
