Yes, 5 mountain bikes with 3 inch wide tires would fit on the Curt Premium 5 Bike Rack # C18065 that you referenced. I attached a picture that shows the rack fully loaded with bikes and you can see that mountain bikes fit pretty easily on this rack.
If you plan on carrying any womens or alternative framed bikes without horizontal top tubes you may also be interested in purchasing a Kuat Bike Frame Adapter Bar # UB01 to provide a horizontal top tube on your bikes to provide an attachment point. I attached a review video for this product also. This will allow the bikes to be carried more level and will provide more ground clearance.
