stunnel doesn't care about the application protocol.  For stunnel it's all
about TCP connections.

Yes, you can, but you probably want to name them [smtp1], [smtp2], etc. 
Quoting The Manual: "Each configuration section begins with service name in
square brackets. The service name is used for libwrap (TCP Wrappers) access
control and lets you distinguish stunnel services in your log files.".

Each configuration file section describes a single service.  You can't have
multiple services within a single section.
