Yes.  The most general way to do so is to write your own Partitioner
subclass (see the src/partitioner/ directory for both simple and
complex examples), which does the sort of (re)partitioning you want in
its _do_partition() method.  Then reset the MeshBase::partitioner()
AutoPtr to point to a new instance of your class before you load or
build your mesh.
