Yes. But in gnuplot's notation that would be.
f1(x) = ...
f2(x) = ...
f11(x) = ...
f22(x) = ...

f(x) = g1(x) * g2(x)

first call:
g1(x) = f1(x); g2(x) = f2(x);
f(x)
second call:
g1(x) = f11(x); g2(x) = f22(x);
f(x)

That is the same as you showed except that you have to
use the names g1 g2 in the original definition as placeholders.
