I would be very surprised if you could make a working footprint. I don't
think anyone does rectangular plated holes and it looks like round pads
would have to overlap.

If I were forced to do such a thing I think I would try putting it on a
card edge. Placing a couple of large rectangular pads so that one tab
would solder flat to one and the other would fit into a notch hand cut
in the other. Ugly but it might work.
