yes.
install redhat first. then install ubuntu as the installer can recognise most other os'es. lets say you have windows in sda1 then make a partition called sda5 (100M) for redhat boot (it has to be a logical partition or in an extended if you get that option) and sda6 for redhat os. then sda7 for redhat swap and sda8 for ubuntu boot and sda9 for ubuntu os. you can use the existing sda7 redhat swap for ubuntu too. hope this helps as this is one of many solutions.
