Yes, although it doesn't have to be LVM, it could just as easily be MD 
or even hardware RAID (I just prefer LVM for the flexibility it offers).

A quick tip regarding this, it seems to get the best performance if the 
stripe size (the -I option for lvcreate) is chosen so that it either 
matches the BTRFS block size, or such that each block in BTRFS gets 
striped across all the disks.
