Well you could if you were using intelligent load balancers for traffic redirection (expensive).

The other advantage of dual MX records is you can pull one down at any 
point. I just make sure I stopin, then flush the queue out. I can then 
do whatever maintenance I need to do to the box during normal hours as 
my other MXs can take over the load. With multiple A records, you can't 
do that.
