    TODA is TORA + the clearway, so yes of course

    TORA
    Takeoff Run Available – The length of runway declared available and suitable for the ground run of an airplane taking off.

    TODA
    Takeoff Distance Available – The length of the takeoff run available plus the length of the clearway, if clearway is provided.
    (The clearway length allowed must lie within the aerodrome or airport boundary. According to the Federal Aviation Regulations and Joint Aviation Requirements (JAR) TODA is the lesser of TORA plus clearway or 1.5 times TORA).

    At Dublin for example, threshold of runway 34 can be used to commence the take off roll on runway 28, thus giving a TODA of Runway 28 + 34 threshold.
