In most cases repartitioning the disk after installing Windows in Boot Camp will break your Windows installation. Boot Camp does not support more than two partitions at a time.

I haven't tried it, but I would think it still wouldn't work. The structure of partitions on the Mac is different, since Macs use EFI instead of a BIOS. Messing with partitions in Windows could result in rendering all partitions on your disk non-bootable.
