Is it possible to call a shortcode as written below 

function myHeader(){
    fn_1();
    //fn_2();
}

function myFooter(){
    fn_2();
//  fn_3();

}
add_shortcode('myFooter', 'myHeader');
add_shortcode('myFooter', 'myFooter');


function fn_1(){
    return 'something for 1';
}

function fn_2(){
    return 'something for 2';
}

function fn_3(){
    return 'something for 3';
}

In my post i call my shortcode as [myHeader] and [myFooter]

  1. It is possible, you just need to return something inside your shortcode methods. Shortcode functions also require some variables, though they don’t actually have to be used.

    eg. 

    function myHeader($atts, $content = null){
   $temp = fn_1();
   return $temp;
}
