Yes, I can't think of a reason why you couldn't.

I don't quite understand the problem.  What's so magical about a cluster?
It's a head node (a machine) and a bunch of slaves (machines).  They have
installed on them software.

Which bit of this setup are you thinking is likely to prove most difficult
with Spacewalk?
