No, it's against the rules. Cheating is "doing something against the rules" not "doing things I can't somehow justify".

It's against the contests rules, when you enter a contest it says on the terms of agreement: "will not use multiple accounts and will take part in the contest using your personal and the single account.", so yes, it is cheating.
