No, this will explode your molecules, check ch.4 in the manual.
If I recall correctly you have 200 GLycines in solution, in principle 
yuo can define 200 different energy groups (+ solvent and/or ions) and 
then you will get a huge energy file from which you can extract all the 
interaction energies.
