Right now I have 3 wireless devices connected to my MediaCenter-PC, and unfortunately each one is using a different IR Receiver as they were all purchased separately. A while back it was just 2 (Mouse/Keyboard used one and remote used one) which wasn't an issue, but after the dog ate the mouse, I am SOL as I am out of front USB ports.
Can these all be configured to use the same one to free up some of the USB slots?

Unfortunately not. Your mouse and keyboard are IR but your remote is probably RF. If your out of USB slots just get a USB hub. You can plug over 100 devices in one USB
Now if you buy programmable RF devices then you can. But I don't know of any mice or keyboards that are programmable
