Robosquad, sure! This can absolutely be done. In fact, Ladyada already has a nice tutorial on how to connect LED strips.

You may just want to buy one 3 meter strip. If you go to the LED strip page...

...and buy qty 3, they will send you one long 3 meter strip. If you order qty 5, you will get a full 5 meter reel, with two connectors.
