Short answer: NO
Long answer:
In theory, if the display-set has VidPn-Exclusive-Ownership outputs for your
card
and VidPn-Shared-Ownership outputs for the remaining ones, then yes.
In other words: if you have a full-screen DXGI/D3D[10|11] application
on the monitor that is being driven by your card, then the deskop compositor
would not consider that as elegible for composition (because it is not
own-able),
but it would start on the other monitors.
In theory, you could write a DDraw (pure 2D) runtime that behaves like a
D3D10 runtime with regard of VidPn Ownership [this problem is also
referred to as Runtime-mamanged-Primaries vs Application-managed-primaries],
but, that runtime does not exist for D3D < 9l, and, there are no plan to
make one.
In general, having desktop composition active on multiple heterogeneour
adapters is fully supported in Win7/WS08-R2 and routinely tested.
The requirements for desktop composition are unchanged from Vista:
D3D9L capable card with pixled-shader 2.0 support, and video-ram
and video-ram-bandwidth adequate to driver your screen size.

I'm not familiar with the logo requirements.
I would start doing a search for `?q=FeatureScore+WDDM`.
That should bring you to a document that describes high level the
requirements.
