Um, not really. In order for the wildcard cert e.g. *.mydomain.com to  
work, all the sites have to be on subdomains like site1.mydomain.com,  
site2.mydomain.com, etc. It doesn't matter if the sites are on  
virtual hosts or not. Serving the cert on anything that doesn't end  
with "mydomain.com" will activate a pop-up.

For single-domain certificates, yes, you have to have each domain on  
a separate IP address.
