Telecaster American Standard - 5-way switch?

Hello everybody,

I'm new here...and I apologize in advance for my English.
I have a Fender Telecaster and i purchased the following pickups:
NECK: DiMarzio Area T Neck
BRIDGE: DiMarzio Tone Zone T

I wanted to know if it is possible to wire it like this on a 5-way switch:
position 1: bridge pickup - full humbucker
position 2: bridge pickup - single coil split
position 3: bridge (humbucker) pickup + neck pickup
position 4: bridge (single coil) pickup + neck pickup
position 5: neck pickup

The reason for this: I have a very heavy band, with them i use a Gibson Les Paul Traditional 2010 and a Fender Stratocaster American Standard with DiMarzio pickups (Tone Zone S, Fast Track and The Chopper - 2 volumes, 1 master tone), but at home I also like to do calmer music and I wanted something that could give me the best of both worlds.

All guitars are left-handed, I know it's irrelevant...but still...:)

Thanks in advance

You could only potentially get something like that one a SuperSwitch, not on a standard 5-way, because on a standard 5-way, positions 2 and 4 are combinations of 1+3 and 3+5 respectively.

Thank you.

I read that it doesn't fit on a Telecaster...I think I will do something else.
Suggestions?
