Yep!

There will be an internal cable for linking them together.  If nothing
is connected to the second, third, etc ASR down the line it'll
automatically link together to the same voltage/trigger in put as the
first.  

Trouble in paradise:

In order for an ASR to do it's job, the pulses that trigger each of
the S+Hs have to be delayed ever so slightly.  With one M23, possibly
even two (making for a total of eight stages) you won't notice the
delay from the time the modules get their pulses to the time the
update occurs.  Adding more however you may hear the transition. 
Nothing can be done about that as it's the proper way an ASR must
operate.  The will be an aprox 3mS delay between when the module
receives it's external trigger to the time the last of the four
outputs does it's update. Again 1 r two tagged on there should be
fine.  Three or four?  who knows.  At a certain point the delay wil be
as such that you will notice it.
