Can I sync more than one network folder to a single folder on Dropbox?

We have three separate folders on our server, each containing photos for a specific company. I would like to keep these three folders as they are, but on the Dropbox side, I want to sync all the content from these three folders (and continue to sync) into a single folder. Is this possible? Thank you!!

    Dropbox will only sync the data located within the Dropbox folder. It can't sync data from other locations, and doesn't support network drives/shares.
