Yes, you CAN put multiple dipoles on one feedline.
It's commonly done in the government and/or commercial
world.  It's often referred to as a "fan dipole".  The feedline
can be either coax or open wire/TV twinlead.

Picture two telephone poles (or towers) with the support
points for the individual dipoles several feet apart vertically
along the two poles/towers.

Such an arrangement is sometimes seen at a National Guard
armory or Civil Defense center.

The dipoles -DO- interact and will need length adjustment,
one at a time
