Sure. Just define a new TemplateDir. You can have TemplateDir
in your catalog.cfg, too. That way, you can share certain pages and
have certain ones be on a per-catalog basis.

The only downside is you do an extra directory lookup when the
page is not found in the pages/ directory, but that is not too
big of a deal unless you have a super-busy catalog.

Symbolic links are another option.
