Probably. It works in LADSPA.

For your example, I suggest a prio 1 lower than the JACK process
thread. In general I recommend setting the priority one lower for
each extra power of two in the helper thread's cycle time (so longer
cycles run at lower priority).

I think JAMin (src/io.c) does something very similar to what you want.
