Yes, in the sense that you can get e.g.

  <data>
    <interface xmlns="http://example.com/ns/interface";>
       ...
    </interface>
    <system xmlns="http://example.com/ns/system";>
       ...
    </system>
    <eventStreams xmlns="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:netmod:notification">
       ...
    </eventStreams>
  </data>
    
Each of these can be viewed as a separate XML document if you wish.
