It sounds possible, if they're all in the same size range, and you deparasitize and quarantine them all first.
I'm not sure what sort of design you had in mind, but you'll have to do some careful planning to be sure that it's humid enough for the frogs, everyone has seperate basking and hide areas, and everyone has everything they need. The size of the enclosure sounds great, if you do this, you'll have to post pictures.
