Jim, yes but we don't even have to do that.
When you turn in your log for CQWW, there is a place to enter which contest
team you are a member of.
Your points are then associated with that club.
My attitude is similar to yours. I prefer to contest from home on my time
and contribute my points to my club.
We all submit our own logs, but also send the results to the club. They are
summarized in a list showing how many points each op contributed. I think
they are cheating, though. Seems my name keeps dropping lower down the list
from year to year! ;-)
I used to consistently be near the top of the list.
Now I'm happy if I make it into the top half of the list.
The mind is willing but the flesh just won't cooperate!

Rick, do you have the option of submitting your own score to a club, to be
aggregated with others' scores?
I'm a member of the Southern California Contesting Club.
As such, I can forget about entering a contest as an individual and submit
my score to SCCC to be included in their aggregate score (which, BTW,
usually places SCCC very high in the club rankings for a given contest).
We have the option to work from our home stations, using our own equipment
and callsigns, and work as little or as much as we care to in a contest.
This is a great way for those of use who are more casual contesters, or are
getting older and don't want to stay on the air for 24 hours straight, to
contribute to a club effort.
I attend every seminar or presentation on contesting that I can, in hopes of
improving my technique.
Last month, I attended an excellent contest-improvement seminar at the ARRL
Regional Convention in Seaside, Oregon.
I would love to attend Contest University, but can't see myself going back
to Dayton any time soon.
Anyway, non of us "little pistols" can expect to find ourselves near the top
of any contest with our individual scores but, when our scores are
aggregated, you have one "big pistol."
