No.  If you e.g. define exactly the same object class twice, slapd stops
with a 'duplicate objectclass' error message.  (You need to start it
with the '-d 0 (or a higher number)' option to see the error message.)

LDAP allows two different OIDs to have the same textual name if they are
in a different name space, e.g. you can have a 'foo' object class with
one OID, and a 'foo' attribute type with another OID.

OTOH, you may not use the same OID for both an attribute or an object
class.
