Is it possible to double wind a soldered together worm?

I thought I found a pretty good deal on tubing (23 bucks for 12 feet of 3/4'' tubing+ shipping) and I guess I really didn't think too hard about how they would get 12 ft of tubing through FedEx till I got the package and it was 12 feet of tubing chopped into four 3 ft peices. :roll: I know I could use couplers to solder them together, but I want to know if it could be used to make a double wound worm so I could fit it on to my old pump cooled condenser or if I should just turn it into a single and restart.

Id say yes but watch for "flat" spots where connected together.

I think it's annealed but if it's not I could just do it myself.
