Yes, it is possible: simply run multiple instances of pg_restore in
parallel and just don't blow up your disk(s) I/O.

Also, why not restoring one database at the same time and accelerating
a single restore with parallel jobs? If your dump format is compatible
with this option, use -j when running pg_restore to define a number of
concurrent jobs. More info here:

This might be useful as well in your case.
