Well, of course. And I have seen some Philco consoles that came from the factory with two pieces of veneer on top with the obvious parallel joint (like the excellent repair Bob made to his 15DX). After all, a Depression was on, and manufacturers kept cranking out the radio cabinets even if they did not turn out 100% perfect or if they did not end up with one sheet of veneer on top.

I have a 610T "Big Bullet" with a long strip of veneer missing on front, that may end up with a similar repair.
