Yes, it can. It's a quite different word - no xrefs. I'll add it.

Many thanks for your comment on "九尺二間".

Does that mean that the above entry should also have other readings and other references; and perhaps a cross-reference or two?

We can read "二間" as being two x 1.818m [にけん?] or even as a part of the hand structure [じかん(手の甲側)] 

I have not tried to modify the above to accommodate these points because the above does have its special meaning, but I think that it would help to have some additional references so the novice is not left believing that what looks like a counter is only to be read as "ふたま".
