Is it possible to get Windows to recognize a second HFS+ partition?

Hi everyone,

I recently added a new HFS+ partition to my hard disk so that it now looks like this:

Partition 0: 200 MB (boot partition)
Partition 1: 70.88 GB (Mac partition, HFS+)
Partition 2: 30.35 GB (Windows partition, NTFS)
Partition 3: 10.24 GB (Linux partition, ext4)
Partition 4: 1 GB (Linux swap partition)
Partition 5: 372 GB (extra storage partition, HFS+)

I know that Boot Camp created an MBR to install Windows in and MBR can only handle 4 partitions, but is it possible to get Windows to see outside the MBR to the GPT and thus the whole hard disk? I want it to see partition 5.
