My question is, could this be the result of the drummer recording the
snare, kick and cymbals seperately? Such a technique makes sense to me
in my head but since I've never tried it I wouldn't know how realistic
the resulting sound would be.
Any comments are welcome.
Thanks,

You forgot to mention the toms. Record them one at a time too?
Asking a drummer to do this is like asking a singer to sing a song one
note at time. "Ok, this pass just sing when it's a G."
You won't make any drummer or singer friends this way ;
Let the mutha bang the whole drum kit. And spend a couple years
learning how to record drums.
Here'a a secret from a pro for ya: if you're serious about getting
great, real drum sounds and you want to record it yourself, hire a
great, experienced studio drummer with a great kit. You'll be more than
half way there.
