Jos,
You probably could by using the center leg primary only for the input and all
the other windings as secondaries. The losses would be higher though in the two
outside legs as compared to one wound with both the primary and secondary in
the same coil. They do make dual coil transformers though using UI cores which
form a square of iron. The primary then is on one leg and the secondary(s) on
the other. Some plate transformers are made this way using a single c-core
section or with UI lams.
Best,
Will
