Hi,
this is perfectly possibly. Hostapd sends a RADIUS Access-Request when a
new station tries to connect, and the RADIUS server includes the allowed
PSKs with this station in the Access-Accept reply message using
Tunnel-Password attributes.
So it does not matter whether two STAs have the same PSK or not, and
multiple PSKs per STA are also supported.
Please note that when using WPA3, you need some extra patches:

I am seeing there is an option to use radius for WPA, but I am not
sure if it will allow multiple devices (not limited by MAC address) to
use the same key via radius? This would be similar to using the
Special MAC address 00:00:00:00:00:00 can be used to configure PSKs
that anyone can use while using the hostapd.wpa_psk method. Does
anyone know if its possible to do this by radius? I don't think the
actual passphrase is passed.
# Optionally, WPA passphrase can be received from RADIUS authentication
server
# This requires macaddr_acl to be set to 2 (RADIUS)
# 0 = disabled (default)
# 1 = optional; use default passphrase/psk if RADIUS server does not
include
# Tunnel-Password
# 2 = required; reject authentication if RADIUS server does not include
# Tunnel-Password
#wpa_psk_radius=0

Michał,
Thanks, this makes more sense.
I basically meant if you have 100 OpenWRT AP's running at an
enterprise, how would you in mass edit the psk file, and reload
accordingly across all? Most commercial vendors have a controller that
devices would check into to facilitate this task, or use a radius
server. Can radius be used with Multi-PSK?
