A better question would be this:

Is is possible to enable bayes filtering and have sa-lern work when SA
settings are stored in a sql db?

I could be wrong, but I am not sure that this is possible unless a
separate instance of SA that uses local storage for the bayes db that are
created.

If it is possible to do this, then how can you guarantee locking of a
shared db (the bayes db) across multiple servers?
