Not while remaining faithful to their religion. A core tenant of all three faiths you named is that their God (which are all different interpretations of the same god) is the ONLY god and you cannot recognize any other god.
Of course, there have always been varying interpretations of each faith. Christianity, especially, has lent itself to syncretism quite well. There have been (and still are) many cultures where the people would identify themselves as Christian, but see no contradiction in also recognizing aspects of other faiths, including sometimes gods (although they might call them some other word).
If you’re following any of the major, world-recognized denominations of Christianity, Judaism, or Islam (eg Catholicism, Protestantism, Sunni Islam, Orthodox Judaism, Shia Islam, etc) then, no, you cannot worship pagan gods. But there are smaller versions of each religion which do.
You are right but I’d like to point out that you could argue that the holy trinity is polytheistic, or like LDS believe this universe’s god is just one of many gods. But you are correct for the most part I just wanted to mention that
Well, there are a hell of a lot of Christians, Jews, and Muslims alive right now who aren’t actively trying to kill each other. Mostly, they just let others go about living their lives. It’s only the radical fundamentalists who try to kill others.

At one time, the Church did indeed consider the Trinity idolatry and heretical.
So what if you just worship the other interpretations? Let me guess: They kill you.

The ones politicians keep riled up will.
