Multiple USB security camera sensors on one USB bus

If we were to set security-specific USB cameras to only take snapshots once every five seconds, regardless of which orbiter was accessing them, we could then create a software alternator to switch between cameras on the same bus so that only one camera would be running at a time.  This would allow for multiple USB cameras to be installed on LMCE on the same bus.  The hope is that this would allow people to set up a fully functional, state-of-the-art security system using nothing more than one computer, a network of usb hubs, and USB webcams set up as security cameras.

Is this a possibility?
