They use the Doppler shift of emission lines in the starlight to find exoplanets, due to a planet pulling its star around their mutual center. To the tune of measurement precision in the realm of 1 m/s! It's all pretty wild

For multiple individual telescopes to provide more telescope time, yes, but for multiple mirrors to act as one in the visible spectrum, it would be extremely difficult as they need to be aligned to a fraction of a wavelength. Maybe if they are mechanically attached to each other once in orbit it could work. See: ESO's Very Large Telescope, astronomical interferometers.
