You'll need to "loop".

RewriteRule   /clubhouse/(\d+)(\d)/(.*)       /clubhouse/$1/$2/$3    [N]

This rule will match as long as there are two consecutive digits, and
will split of one digit. The N flag causes rewriting to start again
with the new url. So this will be repeatedly evaluated until there are
no more consecutive digits....

So /clubhouse/1234567/mediafile.jpg
becomes /clubhouse/123456/7/mediafile.jpg
then /clubhouse/12345/6/7/mediafile.jpg
and so on
till you get /clubhouse/1/2/3/4/5/6/7/mediafile.jpg

If you have more rewrite rules it is probably best to put this one at the start.
