Sure.  An even better example, on Cape Cod: there are multiple
stations licensed to Hyannis, which is a fire district in the town of
Barnstable.  (Whose English namesake, for what it's worth, is spelled
"Barnstaple" with a "p".)  There is also a station licensed to
Barnstable itself (WQRC), plus another to West Barnstable (WKKL).
