Can you get a bachelors masters and phd in all different subjects

This is an debate we are having at work. I have my bacberlors in economics, and masters in finance, but they are basically the same. So could you get a bachelors in say astronomy a masters in something like business management and a doctorate in political science? You wouldn't believe the arguments this has caused last week

You would basically have to double major .. you have to apply to the post graduate programs and you have to demonstrate you have adequate background in the subject you have chosen and convince a department head to accept your premise . What you are suggesting would be considered a " stunt " by academia and your application would be denied .
