Yes. The quad core chips are basically two dual core CPUs with some SMP glue logic and a unified memory controller.

Intel Quad-core implementation Posted Nov 9, 2007 11:00 UTC (Fri) by anton (guest, #25547) [Link] The current Intel quad core packages are two dual-core chips in a multi-chip module (MCM), connected to a common bus. There is no glue logic (SMP logic is on each of the chips), and the memory controller is in a different package (the MCH).
