A pi4 can run quite a lot very easily especially if you dockerize your weewx setups. The new v5 as Tom mentioned would make it much simpler as well if you wanted to go that way (one installation of 'code' and different trees for data/skins/config files) although you would need to cook up your own startup file setup.
Really comes down to whether your current weewx installations hypothetically need to attach to the same physical serial/usb port or network port. If there's no contention there, should be easy to do.
