Yes, it is possible to create a method that encapsulates the process of creating threads with similar functionality. This would involve defining the shared functionality that all the threads should perform, and then writing a method that takes parameters specifying the number of threads to create and any other relevant configuration options. The method would then create the desired number of threads, passing them the appropriate data and starting them up. One example of such a method might be:

import threading

def create_threads(func, num_threads, *args, **kwargs):
    """Create a group of threads running the given function with the given arguments."""

    threads = []
    for i in range(num_threads):
        t = threading.Thread(target=func, args=args, kwargs=kwargs)
        threads.append(t)
        t.start()

    return threads

This method takes a function func as its first argument, which represents the shared functionality that each thread should perform. It also takes a num_threads parameter specifying the number of threads to create, and any number of additional positional or keyword arguments that should be passed to the function when it is called by each thread. The method creates the desired number of threads, each running the given function with the specified arguments, and returns a list of the created threads.
