Yes.

Many modern processors can be run in a multi-processor mode, including
x86, PPC, MIPS, etc.

Sure.


You may be asking the wrong question.  The changes required to make gcc
support a multi-processor architecture are fairly small.  The changes
required in, e.g., the threading library are much larger.  gcc is just a
compiler, and does not provide a threading library; that would normally
come from your C library.
