Is it possible to make a 2 stroke 6-cylinder axial engine, wherein 3 pistons serve as air pumps for the opposing cylinder?

It makes sense to me. One piston functions as a pump to force fresh air/fuel mixture into the opposing cylinder where the actual combustion happens.

The first drawing is a diagram of how 1 pair of pumping and combustion cylinders would work.
The second drawing is a top view. O cylinders are pumping cylinders and X cylinders are combustion cylinders, with the arrows pointing in the direction of air flow.
