I am new to azure pipelines, started learning & in the process of creating my very 1st yaml pipeline.

My project is private, I am using a multi-stage templated pipeline, self-hosted as need to concurrently deploy a java web application to 7 VMs using mvn tomcat7 plugin run: command
so as to run selenium automation tests in parallel across all the VMs. A template pipeline which is called 7 times to deploy to all the VMs is such that it needs to stay running as
necessitated by the embedded tomcat instance on each of the VMs which in turn requires the ability to have parallelism.

Is it possible to have several parallel jobs running without turning my project from a private one to public ?
