Yes, and I expect you are even putting to much in there. Assuming theguy isn't 
in any other group I think you could do:

[/]
@mydevs = rw

[/customerA/projA]

[/customerA/projB]
theguy = rw

[/customerA/projC]

[/customerB]

I think that is sufficient. But, yea, as was said, it is easy enough to try.
