Been millions of multi carbed motorcycles setup without a common plenum, synchronising them isn't a big deal.
Trying to run a common plenum with progressive linkage is setting yourself up for problems with fuel distribution. IOW, the cylinders furthest from the carb your running off of will be lean, or if you jet up the ones closest will be too rich. If you didn;t try to set them up linearly (front carb opens first, next one back is next, third one back is third, etc) then you might be able to handle the distribution problem, or minimise it anyway.
They say there are no such thing as a stupid question. They say there is always the exception that proves the rule. Don't be the exception.

It's called a balance tube. The individual runner, or paired runner, ideas works. Not optimal, but back in the day big CFM carbs didn't exist so you had to run multiple carbs and before the 4bbl it was multiple 2bbl carbs. Offy still makes a bunch of multiple 2bbl intakes for a bunch of motors.
Yes, your engine will run. If you are doing it for looks, go for it. If you might be thinking it's a better setup than a modern 4bbl setup, then forget the idea.

Look at the old Weiand Drag-Star manifolds. All they consisted of was a log for each bank and a balance tube between them. You can find pics of them online and that should give you an idea of how to build your own.....
