Look at the raid tools like mdadm.  I'm pretty sure you can (mdadm 
--assemble?), but you have to be careful of the options you use when you 
create the raid array.  Read the help files and the man pages.

caveat:  I don't run RAID at home (nor do I use LVM anymore), but I used 
to work for a RAID storage array company 7-8 years ago....
