The answer to that question is yes, and we do this wehre I work.  
I guess the answer comes down to "Can I formulate my workflow into a shell script"  
If the answer is yes, PBSpro will allocate you the resources including GPUs and run your script for you.

Even if you cannot formulate the work into a script you can start an interactive job and have a command prompt.

Can we help by being a bit more specific on what you want to achieve?  
Tell us a little about your setup. On premises? On cloud? How many servers?  
Clearly you do not have to give any commercially sensitive information.
