yes, same as with linear supplies, it works best with unregulated supplies.
No. with regulated supplies the same care must be taken as if you're paralleling linear regulated supplies.

But take care if you are stacking outputs in series for increased voltage / split rails. Some outputs are not isolated and the magic smoke will get out.
