Like this, more or less:
root@pumpkin:/etc # gpart add -t freebsd -s 10G ada0
ada0s2 added
root@pumpkin:/etc # gpart add -t freebsd -s 10G ada0
ada0s3 added
root@pumpkin:/etc # gpart add -t freebsd -s 10G ada0
ada0s4 added, but partition is not aligned on 4096 bytes

Of course, if one wanted a 3-device raidz2 vdev in production in the=20
first place, you'd do
well to have the partitions on 3 different drives, much better=20
performance and resilience
that way. But the logical structure of the ZFS vdev is the same.
Why are you so certain that this is impossible?
