While it would be possible to stuff that into the tables and most things
might work because internally the system uses the unit numbers instead
of the shortname, it would cause no end of chaos as various displays
would show information you wouldn't be able to tell apart.

A better question is what sort of problem are you trying to solve that
calls for such an unusual solution?  It isn't required to have a three
level org chart.  A simple enough installation could just have one
entitity.  There are some known issues with the org chart UI that might
make you think it can't be done though.
