Is it necessary to have physical interfaces as many as virtual machines spawned in a server if each VM uses dpdk ?

As per my understanding, if a process within a virtual machine is going to use dpdk for the fast path, it takes the control of physical interface.There is a use case for which i have to spin up multiple virtual machines on the same server to implement a service chaining functionality. Each service needs dpdk based interface. Now question is "Can I provide the same physical interface for the dpdk running in each VM somehow ?" Or it is not possible, sharing of same physical interface with the multiple virtual machines ?
