Yes.
You cannot share devices (yet) so you need at least one separate
controler/disk per partition and a separate processor of course. One
drawback I found with such small servers: should you happen to have 4 GB of
RAM expect to loose 756MB for memory handling. (original quote from the IBM
support hotline: "hypervisor needs 256MB and TCE needs 256 MB - this equals
756 MB")

Regards,
Andreas ;-)
