You can't keep even a single clown loach permanently in there. 3 young clowns will but you need to upgrade the tank in the future.
 
You could put several in a tank of that size for a few years. This is assuming you are talking about buying the typical 1-2 inch loaches. They grow to the 4-6 inch range pretty quickly, then their growth rate slows down a lot and they max out at 12 inches+.

IMO you would need to upgrade to something like a 72 inch x 18-24 inch footprint tank at a minimum.

You can keep some in there for awhile, but just be sure to do your water changes. I have never had a "permanent" fish tank, my collection constantly evolves with my insanity.
