Yeah you can do this.

You will need a 525 though.  However, you only said 3 vlans but in your 
heading you have 8 port.  If the firewall is truly only checking the vlan 
traffic and not performing any other routing, then you would only need 6 
ports and can use a PIX 515E.

U can do it without any problems, just use the outside
Interface(ethernet0) for the connection to the internet.
The other interfaces to the vlans should have higher security levels.
It is no difference than configuring with just one inside network.
Just remember Interfaces with the same Security Level cannot communicate.

It makes sense if u need higher security than just accesslists.
