In theory yes, although to be honest I am not sure how the connections work between the concourses (having only been through once). However, FRA seems to have common departure-arrival areas so I assume you should be able to get through to any of the lounges in Terminal 2. However, be aware that there may be additional security checks between the lounge and the departure gate so you need to allow sufficient time to get through

(My experience was connecting CX-BA - the CX lounge was very near the arrival gate and acts both as departure and arrival lounge, and I thought it was very pleasant. Getting from there to the BA departure gate was, as I recall, about 400 yards and half an hour!)
