Yes, depends on your exact details required.
I'm making this with GFS backup policy, using different backup levels
(full, diff, incr), three pools with different backup retentions and a
schedule showing how often (density) execute a particular backup level
makes three different backup densities.
So, in your example:
- full, retention counted in years (you did not specified it), executed
every three months
- diff, retention 1 year, executed every two months
- incr, retention 6 months, executed every month
If you craft your schedule carefully then my execution times could be even
lower to achieve your requirements. I showed you an exemple.

best regards
