You could do this but IMO it isn't a good idea. Feeding will be much more difficult especially with animals that are not consisant feeders. My carpets have freaky food responses and I wouldn't feel comfortable feeding them in the same cage or removing them. They may bite each other and handling after eating is not advised. Also, illness can be spread easily from sharing a water bowl and from crawling though excrement. In the space that cage will take up you could build individual cages.

Good luck
