Big problems with that, Jorge.  Even if 90 degrees off and I think you
won't be positioning them that far off (more like 70 degrees or so?) with
only 6 feet of separation (your example used two feet but even with 6 feet)
your SWR will likely be higher than you want to see, you will lose gain and
the patterns will be disturbed.

Even with 90 degree rotation, you need to be careful and consider the interaction of the boom with the other antennas.
