Yes. See . . .

I've not had very good luck with multiple wires into
anything except the old MS3100 series solder-pot connectors.
Crimping multiple wires into connector pins is problematic.

Jon it's not clear from your text as to the exact
nature of your task. Can you scan a sketch of the wiring
diagram and attach it to a reply? I 'think' I know
what you're dealing with but a schematic would help
me be more specific and useful.
