How can you go about partitioning Ubuntu so that it spans multiple disks during the installation process of Ubuntu Server 15.10? Is it even possible to do this?

Use Logical Volume Manager(LVM) for this. I have a detailed thread which talks about this topic. It has some other pointers(references) also.

In general the OOTB Ubuntu creates two partitions for you - root(/) and swap.

But you would like to have /usr, /opt, /home, /var on different logical volumes which can span across the disks(and giving you flexibility to add the disk to the logical group/volume later if needed).
