Buildbot does no magic here: it is essentially a system that does things on potentially multiple build hosts when triggered by some event. Everything else is outside the scope of buildbot. If you want to build on all these platforms you must have them at hand and install an buildbot-slave on each of them. What you could do is have a host with all VMs installed but only poweron them on demand in the buildstep, however that is a bit uncommon and needs customizing the buildslave part.
