Diy multi-split - is it possible?

Hi guys, new user from Norway here!

I have been reading this great forum for a while, and learned a lot all ready. Right now I am thinking about starting a project of my own.
I live in a boat here in Norway, and the boat has 3 evaporators with fans from an old Cruisair unit. The compressors and condensers are removed by previous owners, but by the wiring diagram it seems to have been 3 different condensing units before. Not shure how many compressors.
I just found a very cheap Fuji heat pump outdoor unit for sale, and I was thinking - is it possible and doable to use those 3 evaporators as the indoor unit for that Fuji. The Fuji is not a multi-split. I do not need individual temperature and fan control for each evaporator, I am ok with them all "doing the same". Am I dreaming too far out here, or could this be a doable project?

I have worked 3 years with heat pumps and other cooling equipment earlier, mostly restaurant equipment.
