Yes.

This is possible (you can have rules for the instance attributes), *but*
it is a really bad idea for administrative reasons. It'll be a nightmare
to remember, and bite you in every single script.

It's usually a lot better to rename the ports via udev/ipaddr rules. Not
sure how to do that for IB, but it's possible for everything else.

Of course, it's even better to plug everything into the same ports ;-)
That makes working on the hardware less confusing.
