Yes this is fine. The best way to answer these questions is to just try
it........you usually learn alot doing it.
It is perfectly fine to use a subinterface on router 1 (in point to
multipoint) to talk to an interface on routers 2 and 3 (not
subinterface). The fact you are using subinterfaces or not using sub
interfaces is trasparent to the distant end.
