it can be done in theory but in practice it would only be useful to transform 3 phase into 3 phase of double voltage, and your useable power might be 10% of the motor's nominal rating.
The reason why is because running a 3 phase motor on 2 of its 6 windings consumes the entire thermal budget of those 2 windings. leaving no overhead for the load to draw anything.
If you have a synchronous motor it can be done because a synchronous motor draws unity power factor and doesn't need amps flowing in the stator to magnetize the air gap.. those amps are flowing in the rotor.
also the coupling between the two sets of windings in an induction motor is rather crappy, but it depends on the motor. so your voltage regulation is going to be very poor.
