Yes, that''s the point of the -d option, it uses the DN of the proxy to authenticate and to decide which proxy to retrieve.

The initial voms proxy can last 24 hours, so you can upload to myproxy well after you submit  a job.  There could be a small gap for jobs still running from the previous week, but you'd be quite unlucky to hit it.
