Couldn't be done on a VC 10 because of the castoring nosewheel.
Slight thread drift !
There was a page in the VC10 Flying Manual detailing all the reasons why it "should not" be done. I think the risk of using brakes while reversing was the major concern (Tail on ground, nose in air...means no tea, unless the cabin crew have climbing gear.)
I have been present when a 3 or 4 point turn was required near the end of the runway before departure, (many many moons ago), it worked.
