Yes, if you share the MessageListener between multiple channels.

Profile, StartChannelListener, and MessageListener are separate interfaces
so you can have separate instances per listener, session, and channel
respectfully.

If you want to avoid locking in your MessageListener then you will need to
allocate a MessageListener per channel since messages can be received in
parallel in different channels.
