I doubt you would want to do that. The PSU is over 2" deep (small and medium
supplies), with bare mains connections at the top. This would put them
unacceptably close to the circuitry of the modules.

How long is a piece of string?
Some modules are near 3 inches deep. The dual channel stereo mixer has two
1.75 deep inch assemblies mounted at the back of the boat. Needless to say,
they are positioned so they don't coincide with a 3 inch deep module.

The lips to which you screw the panels are a problem too, as they have
cutouts along most of the length to allow for the panel to be jiggled into
position, as the screw holes are closer together than the width of the
circuitry.
