Default Can I connect joystics through external USB-hub?

OK, I guess I will be ridiculed but this is the question.

I am flying for years with a SW2FFB and X45 throttle. I got as present a Warthog together with a set of Rudder pedals (since the Warthog has none).

I would like to give the Warthog a try and see if it can replace my SW2FFB
(I am sure I will exchange the X45 throttle with the warthog throttle)
but I am not keen to remove my old joysticks as I am still very much used to them and I presume it will take a long time to learn the different settings of the Warthog switches. Besides the fact that the ForceFeedback makes the SW2FFB a fantastic joystick for many games so I will probably like to keep it connected for other games.

To cut the long story short, I will need to connect the following USB joysticks on my PC:
SW2FFB
Saitek X45
Throttle Quadrant
Throttle Quadrant (second)
THRS Warthog (two usb)
Saitek Pro Rudder pedals

Since I do not have that many free USB slots, I am thinking of adding a USB hub and connecting a few joystics through that.

Has anybody had a similar experience connecting joysticks through a USB hub????
Were there any problems????

Many thanks for any useful advice.
