Does this do what you want? 

(set-charset-registries 'latin-iso8859-1
			["charset-registry of first desired font"
			 "charset-registry of second desired font"
                         "charset-registry of third desired font"
			 "iso8859-1"])

(set-face-font 'default
	       "initial-part-of-xlfd-charset-registry-of-first-desired-font"
	       first-desired-locale)
(set-face-font 'default
	       "initial-part-of-xlfd-charset-registry-of-second-desired-font"
	       second-desired-locale)
(set-face-font 'default
	       "initial-part-of-xlfd-charset-registry-of-third-desired-font"
	       third-desired-locale)

(set-face-font 'default
	       "desired default font"
	       'global)

No; you can add a fonts.alias entry for that font to your X11 server
configuration, mapping it to a sane name.
