You definitely can:

(gdb) show inferior-tty
Terminal for future runs of program being debugged is "".
(gdb) tty tty1
(gdb) show inferior-tty
Terminal for future runs of program being debugged is "tty1".
(gdb) add-inferior
Added inferior 2
(gdb) inferior 2
[Switching to inferior 2 [<null>] (<noexec>)]
(gdb) show inferior-tty
Terminal for future runs of program being debugged is "tty2".
(gdb) inferior 1
[Switching to inferior 1 [<null>] (<noexec>)]
(gdb) show inferior-tty
Terminal for future runs of program being debugged is "tty1".
