I've not actually tried it, but I can't see why not. The idea of the
FETCHCOMMAND setting is to enable you to replace wget; emerge is going to
have to call it multiple times for a multi URI package even if it's using
the default wget so there should be no difference with this.

What I didn't mention is that once you've got the tarballs and dumped them
in /usr/portage/distfiles running emerge again will see that they're
already there and not try to do the fetch stage again, so you don't even 
need to change the FETCHCOMMAND setting back.
