Oh, it's perfectly doable, as I said yesterday afternoon.  It merely
requires distributing individual copies of the key and setting a
different passphrase on each copy.  You can't have multiple passphrases
on a single copy of the key.

What I still don't understand is why you would want to do such a thing.

Let's approach this in a different way.  What is the problem you are
trying to solve?
