Can we use different layers containing static lighting elements and build them separately alsongside other layers?

For example:
A: Data layer with my world elements.
B: Data layer with static day lighting.
C: Data layer with static night lighting.

I would build lightmass with A+B and A+C separately. Then on packaged build, I could switch from B to C and get shadows updated.

Just like Lighting scenarios of the previous system. Or it works with dynamic lighting only?
