Yes this is possible and supported. You will need to create server/virtual server objects for the new remote server and since gslb servers must be associated with a datacenter you can either assign it to an existing DC or create a new one just for the new server. The primary purpose of a DC is for gtm to decide how to do the monitoring. GTM always wants to use a bigip in the same DC for monitoring but will use remote bigips if required to monitor a server.
