No, as far as I understand it, you would need three Server 2003 enterprise editions or datacentre editions to achieve this.

Exchange, dunno sorry.

 

2003 Standard edition doesn't support clustering.

 

You will need Exchage 2003 Enterprise and Windows server 2003 Enterprise or Datacenter

3 node is an unusual configuration though as MS recommends only A/P configurations not A/A configurations
and A/A is ONLY supported on two nodes from what I remember
