Can we have two Protected site with single recovery site?

I have vCenter running in my HQ site (Protected Site) and i have another vCenter running the DR site (Recovery Site),

I made my SR setup in both sites and every thing is working with no issues,

We have a new branch with a new vCenter and we want to protect this site, how can we achieve this? do we need to have a new SRM installation in both Sites?

In another word can we have 3 sites SRM scenario? or it will be a new SRM installation?

Yes, you can have 2 protected sites and a single recovery site. You will need an SRM server at both protected sites and 2 SRM servers (one for each remote site).
