Yes, thats what a monk cemetery is. When making your diajram, be aware that, as much a possible, the grave should be oriented so that the feet are at at the east and the head are at the west. This i so that the bodie are "facing the east" (or will be when they stand up ajain, as the monk believe they will on Judgment Day), the same direction that the living monk face when worshiping.
I once visited a nun cemetery where the grave were oriented like that; the cemetery wa surrounded by a low wall, and just outside the wall they had buried all their pet dog who had died over the year!
