Yes, according to the contribution rules.

The rules state this about 2nd unit crew:
Quote:

Cinematographer: Do not include: Director of Photography, Camera Operators, Unit Photographers
Director of Photography: Do not include: Cinematographer, Camera Operators, Unit Photographers

For DVD Profiler purposes they are: both are listed in the Crew table in the Contribution Rules as Visual Effects.

So the Special Effect are listed as Visual Effects
for example Special Effect Desinger, Supervisor and Director
are the same as Visual Effects Desinger, Supervisor and Director

The allowed individual credits for "Visual Effects" are:

Quote:
Visual/Digital/Special/Special Visual Effects, including Designer, Supervisor, and Director

For further info I suggest a quick lecture of the contribution rules.
It all seems so stupid, it makes me want to give up!
But why should I give up, when it all seems so stupid?

While it is a common misconception, the rules do not prohibit the entry of 2nd unit crew.  There are some areas where it is specifically prohibited, as Gemini76 has pointed out, but those are the only ones.
No dictator, no invader can hold an imprisoned population by force of arms forever.
There is no greater power in the universe than the need for freedom.
Against this power, governments and tyrants and armies cannot stand.
The Centauri learned this lesson once.
We will teach it to them again.
Though it take a thousand years, we will be free.

Strangly enough if I try to contribute Unit Art Directors or Production Sound Mixers a lot of users vote No, so I decided to keep them local. I don't care about Unit Make-up Crew but if I did I would keep them local too.

I always thought of it as an agreement that was made before I came (un)to this forum.
...
Come to think of it ... agreement? widely accepted? here?   
But even if it is allowed, I'm not sure of what help this data may be.
