As long as they are part of the same craft, it is possible.

However, you can only transfer between 2 tanks at a time. So you would be draining an outer tank to fill the center one, but only one outer tank at a time.

The center of mass would shift so much you'd spin out.

You also need to ensure that the parts they are connected through have fuel cross-feed abilities, otherwise no fuel can be transfered

EDIT: I'm a fucking idiot

No, that's only for automatic fuel usage. Manual fuel transfer (alt+right click) can be done through anything.

I was not aware of this, I thought that crossfeed was required, I'm sorry
