Maybe you can do it if reverse-round-robin-DNS exists, but so far as I know it doesn't and, in any case, you would get any name at random from that list for every request anyway, which is not what you want. Simply set the reverse DNS to something that makes sense to YOU: 99.99% the only check that is made for reverse DNS is that it exists, not that it matches with forward DNS in any way.
I would echo everyone of these sentiments 100% - and then add that you should also ensure that at least one of your forward entries do match your reverse entry (does not particularly matter which one) as some systems require that a reverse lookup match a forward lookup of the same name and otherwise deny access to the service. (another check for careless admins which is not particularly useful but people do anyway)
Again, our 100 domains run on about 30 IP addresses, and the reverse DNS on all 30 addresses is the same: "rita.otherdomain.com". No one has yet cared.
This is also a very true point ! and the same holds for the "real" hostname of the machine as it appears in your Received: headers.
