FWIW, I don't think so.

While I could not find any specific definition in the ONE star file, I did in the Circle Pacific star file and I would venture to say the rules are the same.

63N .3. A SURFACE SEGMENT IS CONSIDERED 1
64N . STOPOVER
65N .
66N . EXAMPLE: LAX-SYD-CNS-GOV-CNS-HKG-
67N . BKK//HKG-LAX
68N . .
69N . A SURFACE IS CONSIDERED AS 1 STOP,
70N . THEREFORE A STOP IS
71N . PERMITTED AT EITHER BKK OR HKG
72N . WHICHEVER BENEFITS THE
73N . PASSENGER. IN THIS EXAMPLE, THE STOP
74N . WOULD BE TAKEN AT
75N . BKK SINCE A STOP WAS ALREADY TAKEN AT
76N . HKG.
