Yes it is possible;

Take a look to my configuration (It's a netbsd box but It works the same
manner).

I have 4 disks splitted in 3 raid5 array. (note: that's really not a
good setting for perf).
This is not exactly what you but you can easily adapt to what you want.
Anyway there are my conf files :

1 . disklabel for my 4 disks :

# /dev/rwd0d: (first disk , but all are identicals)
type: ESDI
disk: ESDI/IDE disk
label: IBM0 #(name each disk to avoid confusion)
flags:
bytes/sector: 512
sectors/track: 63
tracks/cylinder: 16
sectors/cylinder: 1008
cylinders: 16383
total sectors: 241254720
rpm: 7200
interleave: 1
trackskew: 0
cylinderskew: 0
headswitch: 0 # microseconds
track-to-track seek: 0 # microseconds
drivedata: 0

16 partitions:
# size offset fstype [fsize bsize cpg/sgs]
c: 241250000 63 unused 0 0
e: 80416666 63 RAID
f: 80416666 80416729 RAID
g: 80416666 160833395 RAID


2. raid0.conf :

START array
# numRow numCol numSpare
1 4 0

START disks
/dev/wd0e
/dev/wd1e
/dev/wd2e
/dev/wd3e

START layout
# sectPerSU SUsPerParityUnit SUsPerReconUnit RAID_level_5
32 1 1 5

START queue
fifo 100

3. raid1.conf :

START array
# numRow numCol numSpare
1 4 0

START disks
/dev/wd0f
/dev/wd1f
/dev/wd2f
/dev/wd3f

START layout
# sectPerSU SUsPerParityUnit SUsPerReconUnit RAID_level_5
32 1 1 5

START queue
fifo 100

etc...
