Which architecture? Each generation has different "rules" for overclocking.
In most cases yes you can raise the base clock. But it would be stupid to do so. The HT reference clock on phenom II systems is not linked to anything but the cpu. This allows you to safely overclock the cpu by raising it without overclocking other components in the system. This cannot be done on MOST modern Intel cpus. Which is why raising the base clock on an Intel system is the equivalent of taking the largest sledge hammer you can find and beating your motherboard with it like it just tried to rob you.

What does any of this have to do with TB?
That's just completely wrong. TB raises the multiplier. That's how it works. Even on locked cpus.
