No, you can't. However, you can use the following command in order to
simulate extraction from multiple archives:
find / -name '*.tar' -exec tar -xvf {} \;
This command assumes that the archives are stored in a directory
(named ). You may replace '*.tar' with your own spec. if
you want the system to request permission before expanding each
archive, replace the 'exec' option with 'ok'.
