Depends on what you mean by 196 communities. If you mean honest 196 communities then not really. If you mean having them spelled out differently there can but there is a practical limit on how many you can have per instance due to how many ways you can write it.
I was about to do the math on how many variations you would need, but then checked join-lemmy.org and found out there are 581 instances (out of those, if i havent miscounted, there are at least 69 instances with more than 5 active users per month)
If you used c/196, c/oneninesix and c/onehundredninetysix, you would need less than 10% of those instances
Does it matter? There can be multiple 196 communities on the same instance
