I do not think so, because of that usually one has to
perform FFT in order to get C(R) of C(q) calculated.
C(q) ==> C(R) is done by q2r.x which needs the same
number of q-points (and dynamical matrices C(q)) which
you used in phonon calculations specifying
nq1,nq2,nq3. Otherwise I assume you will recieve an
error message like "q-point not allowed".

By the way, q2r.x first reads Sysname.dyn0 file which
contains nq1,nq2,nq3 already used and total number of
q-points for this grid, and then q-points. So, if you
like to mix these q-points (and C(q)) which
nq1,nq2,nq3 you can specify in the dyn0 file?

Bests,
Eyvaz.
