No, I use two users for that.

You don't even need two busses. No bus does as well by starting

DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS= rygel -c /path/to/some/config

Though you will lose
 - Shutting down the instance by calling rygel -s (But Ctrl-C does a 
clean shut-down as well)
 - Automatic movie thumbnailing through Thumbler
 - External, MPRIS and Tracker plugin.
