Sure is! Here is another way to do a new prefix
command and to have it work globally and on global
commands, if that is what you are doing:

    ;; Create a new prefix command: C-o
    (define-prefix-command 'C-o-prefix)
    (global-set-key "\C-o" 'C-o-prefix)

    ;; Assign `C-o m' to do something useful
    (global-set-key "\C-om"
       (lambda ()
         (interactive)
         (message "Humans are sure fun to watch. And from here, the look so 
small!") ))
