Yes. Add the line

13:123:respawn:/sbin/mingetty tty13

to your /etc/inittab (don't forget the "init q" afterwards) and you can
switch to the 13th tty with <right-alt><F1>. I think this gives the idea.

I think you can go pretty high (up to 64, check devices.txt) using
additional modifiers. If you do so, please remember to add more nodes to
/dev (currently there are only 24 tty devices). Also, check your
/etc/syslogd.conf for a tty to log to.
