absilutely. just remember to kill the breaker if you can b4 doing any electric work. we still want to see and hear from you after you dso the switch. lol.

Just need a 4 gang box and remove the 2 gang, you might have to cut the sheetrock and and wire from one outlet to the next, my opion would just get more extension cords

Easier to just add 'power strip'...plus have surge protection, without going to breaker box.

[Deep Dive Coral]

Yes that is the easier way but too many wores for my taste. Also I am an electrician so its easy for me I guess.

 

[pauliwalnuts]

Yeah. But whatever you do, don't go over the 80% the total amprege of the circuit you're using.

 

[Reef Reaper]

Yes, if you have not done it for yourself, you should call an electrician. Anyway , it is pretty easy. Watch a professional for your first time.
