Alan, Yes, the SE is one of the few Macs that can recognize three floppy drives, total. I've tried this myself.
I really wouldn't chance operating the SE without a fan. Adding extra air vents might help, but I think after some of the heat-buildup problems and failures surfaced with the Mac Plus, the designers realized a fan was very important for basic cooling. At the very least, lack of a fan would probably severely limit the life of the ol' SE. :-) YMMV.
