Yes. That is explained in the tutorial found here:
http://oss.oetiker.ch/rrdtool/tut/cdeftutorial.en.html

> I have tried this:

DEF:ds_one=rrdfile.rrd:foo:AVERAGE
DEF:ds_two=rrdfile.rrd:bar:AVERAGE
DEF:ds_three=other_rrdfile.rrd:baz:AVERAGE

CDEF:total=\
ds_one,UN,0,ds_one,IF,\
ds_two,UN,0,ds_two,IF,+,\
ds_three,UN,0,ds_three,IF,+

Something like that would do the trick. A line can be
read like so:

"If ds_one == UNKNOWN, then return 0; else return ds_one"
