So in an Eagle library, the device is created by joining schematic symbols with pcb packages. You can have more than one symbol in a package… (a quad opamp). Is there anyway to have multiple packages linked to one symbol?

As far as I know, that isn't possible to do with the present Eagle library stricture. You can not have one symbol that corresponds to several footprints on the PCB, which you can move independently.
I can think of a workaround.
[Haven't tried this with Eagle myself, so this is hypothetical.]
3 separate terminals for the potentiometer (wire terminals, say W1, W2, W3). Each one is a separate part. Put the terminals into their own hierarchical block. Treat this hierarchical block as a schematic symbol.
