Yes, I don't see why not. As for how the partitions would be laid out, that depends on...how you want your partitions laid out.
The bare minimum, as I see it:
/dev/hda1 -- 200mb of ext2 to hold kernels and grub settings.
/dev/hda2 -- 512mb, swap space. They can all use the same swap.
/dev/hda3 -- A couple gigs of ext3 for common space. Mount it on something like /opt/shared for all three distros, so you can dump a file there in one distro, reboot into another distro, and still have that file.
/dev/hda4 -- All remaining space, as an extended partition.
/dev/hda5 -- First partition in extended partition. Holds root partition for Distro #1.
/dev/hda6 -- Second partition in extended partition. Holds root partition for Distro #2.
/dev/hda7 -- Third partition in extended partition. Holds root partition for Distro #3.
grub.conf for this monster is going to look something like:
Even better would be three seperate boot partitions, one for each distro, but that'd mean booting from an extended partition, and I'm not sure how much grub likes that.
Finding a guide for this is unlikely imho, as it'd have to be written by someone who's mastered the same versions of all three distros of interest. You're going to have fun getting all of them to install where you want them.
Of course, if you're going to want multiple boot partitions for each and every distro, things are going to get more complicated.
