If you have an aircraft commander who actually signed for the plane and an instructor/evaluator overseeing him/her then you can have more than one. This is a common scenario in military big wing airplanes. I have never heard of having three, but I suppose in some sort of AC/IP/EP combination, it could happen and be legal.

In the Army, any logging IP time at the controls has to be the PIC/aircraft commander. If you are talking about an IP sitting in the back, without access to the controls, then I am not sure you can log that time per the FAA (I am too lazy to look it up) Yes, on the military records it will say "IP" but that still doesn't make it PIC time.
Just my lowly opinion.

27-year military transitioned to civilian. My flying includes nearly 5,000 hours TT of helos, single and multi airplanes and seaplanes, gliders, gyroplanes, and Lighter-Than-Air. To make sense of logging my relatively complicated hours, I wrote a book, available through Amazon, that clarifies all logging requirements and specifically helps military pilots create a professional log book.
