Yes, of course. Just configure the mail server to accept mail for all
four domains (ie. put all of them in the sendmail.cw file in case you
use sendmail) and point the MX RRs of all four domains to it.

No need for that, a single address record will suffice, so:

mail.domain.com IN A 192.168.0.18
domain.com      IN MX 10 mail.domain.com.
domain1.com     IN MX 10 mail.domain.com.
domain2.com     IN MX 10 mail.domain.com.
domain3.com     IN MX 10 mail.domain.com.

will do what you want.
