make doesn't care what compiler is being used.  If -j3 works for gcc 
then it should work for clang or any other compiler for that matter.  
I'll assume you're using the cmake files to generate Makefiles - in 
which case they dependency resolution should be good and not cause 
problems with a parallel build
