I did it and nothing blew up. Its about the amps the controller is rated for.

controller should have a load rating in amps or watts, if ur fans add up to less than that SHOULD be fine.

. If you have a 20 amp max speed controller then plug it into a 15 amp fused power strip and your butt is covered on the safety angle.

Just put a label on the female end so you don't plug any non-fans into it by accident.

For most fans and controllers a power strip should be fine. Just as long as the ratings of the fans, when added together, don't exceed the controller's amp/wattage rating.
