Wouldn't that be a nightmare trying to get all those individual recordings back in sync?
Hmm. Well, I don't think it would be trivial, mainly because you wouldn't have everyone's track starting at exactly the same moment, and because they'd be fairly localized, many of the waveforms wouldn't be easy to align visually. I'd want to use something like a clapboard every once in a while, probably.Not in a DAW.
The more likely problem you could run into is to much blending leak with them all together. This will depend on the accoustics from the space you will do it. ...
If something huge like this is done in a professional studio many times they will be grouped in seperate rooms, and some recorded stand-alone.
And then there's the task of getting everyone (perhaps teaching them how, on multiple different devices) to send you their recording... (Yes, I'm a cup-half-empty kind of guy!)
But, if you can get the folks to try it just once while you're figuring out what solution works, at least you'd have a datapoint on the sound quality and how much work is involved. Costs nothing to try it!
In a studio when there's simultaneous recordings, all the tracks start/stop at the same time, and/or the performers may have lead-in/click stuff to sync to. I wouldn't compare that to what OP is trying to do.
