Can I fit 3 car seats in a 2008 Mercury Mariner?

I have a Chicco Keyfit with a base for my newborn and two SafetyFirst AirProtects for my 1- and 3-year-olds (approximately 25 and 35 lbs.). Does anyone know if I can fit all 3 across safely in my 2008 Mercury Mariner? I plan to keep the infant behind the passenger seat, my 3-year-old in the middle, and my 1-year-old behind the driver seat. If not, does anyone know which alternative car seats would work, if any? We cannot afford to purchase a new vehicle, but if I have to, I’d obviously rather purchase new car seats. My husband tried to install a few different ways, but not sure if we are complying with laws and safety standards. Also, does anyone know of any legitimate car seat installation technicians/professionals in Southern Nevada (not Babies R Us)? The Clark County Fire Department no longer helps with car seat installation.

The Mariner is a rebadged (autocorrect says it's debauched) Ford Escape. You might be able to find some 3 across successes if you plug that into search.
