Depends on what you're trying to accomplish. Strictly speaking, no, it isn't possible, just from the perspective that the process of launching will be iterative rather than parallel. This may not be what you meant, however, and is probably irrelevant.

If you utilize the API, or code a shell script to do the equivalent jobs, you should be able to accomplish the effect of starting a bunch of jobs in very close temporal proximity. I don't know if there's any limit to parallel rsync jobs coded into the middleware, but if there is, that might preclude using the API for this. You can absolutely write a shell script of the form

#! /bin/sh -

rsync [task 1 args] &
rsync [task 2 args] &
[repeat for 28 more tasks]

which has the limitation that errors will not be detected and reported by the middleware.
