Yes. By using the advSearchHighlithing plugin rather than the default searchHighligthing plugin:
AdvSearch_Highlight is an advanced "Multi-Part" variant of Search_Highlight
It allows to frame with "<!--start highlight-->" and <!--end highlight-->
several parts of the site that will be highligthedFor instance here is an extract of the template of the
ajaxSearch demo site:
<div class="grid_12">
<div class="box content">
<!--start highlight-->
{{article}}
<!--end highlight-->
</div>
</div>
<hr />
<div class="grid_12">
<div class="boxg">{{googleAds}}</div>
</div>
<div class="grid_12 wgbmenu">
<div class="floatr">{{wgbMenuFooter}}</div>
</div>
<div class="grid_12">
<div id="footer">{{footer}}</div>
</div>Note the use of <!--start highlight--> and <!--end highlight--> to frame the article.
