Nope.  The original meaning is that a multihomed machine has two (or  
more) physical network interfaces which are connected to distinct  
network subnets or collision domains.  Virtual interfaces don't count,  
nor would various forms of link aggregation like Cisco's EtherChannel  
or IEEE 802.3ad LACP.
