Unfortunately not yet.

Configuration of 10 titles need to be done manually for each of them, 
but you can select multiple titles (by using Strg/Shift key) and then 
hit "Transcode". It will transcode all selected titles in a row without
any interaction.

The more sophisticated queuing mechanism is the cluster mode, where you
can add different titles from different projects and use more then one 
PC for transcoding.
