No, though the daemon does track every app that would like to own the
same service in a queue. I've thought in the past about having services
that worked as "broadcast addresses" (every app in the queue gets the
message) but afaik you could always just use signals instead.

If you describe your use-case in more detail we might have a
recommendation for how to implement it.
