18.1 Legacy Series / Multiwan on same IP-adresses (multiple WiFi-hotspots) possible?

Hello!
I’m new new to Opnsense and I have got this task from the volunteer organization I'm involved in.
The idea is to use multiple Hot-spots like Android APs and use "balancing" to be able to live stream video in descent resolution during some events. On Android it's not possible to change the DHCP IP-range so all my WAN-interfaces has the same IP, netmask, gateway. I carefully followed the "Setup Multi WAN" found here: https://docs.opnsense.org/manual/how-tos/multiwan.html
I managed to bring up three USB Nic and connect to three different APs, receive IP via DHCP.
hotspot0 <--> WAN0 (192.168.43.212/24) --I
hotspot1 <--> WAN1 (192.168.43.212/24) --I-- Opnsense-box -I- Ethernet (192.168.2.1/24) <--> Client.
hotspot2 <--> WAN2 (192.168.43.212/24) --I
Should this setup be possible withe same IPs on alla WAN-interfaces?
Or am I struggling with with something impossible and the alternative would be to some how get HotSpots with different IP-ranges, or would different IPs be enough?
Thanks!
