Can I rig 2 generators (220v bi-phase) to get 220v three fase

I have two 6000 watt generators that are bi-phase and want to run a 5hp motor that is 220v / 3 phase. Is it possible? How would the wiring go? I'm in Mexico and can't find a rental... well I found varios but noone that can hook up my motor.
