Short answer: No, not really.
Regardless of what primary spec you're going for as a priest, you should have a minimum of 13 points in discipline to pick up meditation. Everyone needs it. It's just that good. That doesn't leave much room for splitting points between the other two trees, since people generally tend to put 38-41 points in holy, or 41+ points in shadow.
I have seen priests with weird tri-specs in arenas on rare occasions (something like
this
, or close to it), but that's pretty unusual.
Generally, people go with "cookie cutter" specs. Not because they want to be like everyone else, but because it is what's most effective.

Yep. There are some variations on the cookie cutters (21/40, 23/38 for raid healers), but those are based mainly on playstyle.
Besides, with a shadow/holy spec, what would be your role? Healing? Without the higher tier holy talents, your healing would be lackluster at best and you'd probably be unable to heal at a heroic or higher level. DPS? Again, without the high tier shadow talents, your dps would suffer, and therefore your mana and health regens would suffer as well giving your raid utility a swift kick in the balls.
