Can MATLAB Distributed Computing Server (MDCS) be used to compile an application with the MATLAB Compiler?

I have a license for the MATLAB Distributed Computing Server (MDCS), and have already installed and configured it on my cluster's nodes. Can I now use MDCS to distribute the compilation of an application with the MATLAB Compiler?

Due to the complexity of MATLAB Compiler's interaction with external system compilers, distributed compilation is not possible.

It is possible to compile an application that will then use the MDCS nodes, but the compilation of the application must be done on a single machine with a traditional license that includes the MATLAB Compiler. 

In addition to being unable to compile through a distributed cluster of nodes, MATLAB Compiler has some limitations on which toolboxes and functions are supported. A full list of supported compiler toolboxes and limitations can be found on the following pages:
