Yes.

Once again: The passphrase has nothing to do with the content,
so you can use the same passphrases with different private keys
(and BTW: you also can use different passphrases on different 
systems to the same private key). The passphrase is only a 
protection - that's all! e.g. you also be able to change the 
passphrase of your private key and the private key stays the
same.

Once again - I really don't want to be rude, but please go with
such questions to the pgp-forums, mailing-lists, faq's or whatever.
Ok?

Sorry for that!
