1. A system, comprising: a turbine engine, comprising: a combustor having a head end region; anda plurality of multi-nozzle assemblies, wherein each of the plurality of multi-nozzle assemblies comprises a plurality of swirl vane assemblies, each multi-nozzle assembly having a mounting base coupled to the head end region, wherein each multi-nozzle assembly comprises an inlet flow conditioner extending to the mounting base, the inlet flow conditioner comprises a load-bearing annular wall defining therethrough a plurality of air inlets, and the inlet flow conditioner structurally supports each multi-nozzle assembly at the mounting base, wherein each multi-nozzle assembly consists of a tri-nozzle that includes three fuel nozzles arranged in a generally triangular pattern. 2. The system of claim 1, wherein the three fuel nozzles share the mounting base and the inlet flow conditioner. 3. The system of claim 1, wherein each swirl vane assembly of each multi-nozzle assembly comprises its own inlet flow conditioner. 4. The system of claim 1, wherein each multi-nozzle assembly comprises a lateral support extending crosswise relative to a longitudinal axis of each multi-nozzle assembly, the lateral support being inside the inlet flow conditioner. 5. The system of claim 4, wherein the lateral support comprises a clover-leaf shaped plate. 6. The system of claim 4, wherein the plurality of air inlets comprise a first air inlet disposed upstream of the lateral support. 7. The system of claim 6, wherein the plurality of air inlets comprise a second air inlet disposed downstream of the lateral support. 8. The system of claim 1, comprising a non-load bearing fuel passage extending in the downstream direction from the mounting base. 9. A system, comprising: a plurality of multi-nozzle assemblies, wherein each of the plurality of multi-nozzle assemblies comprises: a plurality of swirl vane assemblies;a mounting base;an inlet flow conditioner extending directly from the mounting base in a downstream direction, the inlet flow conditioner comprising a load-bearing annular wall defining therethrough a plurality of air inlets; anda lateral support disposed inside the inlet flow conditioner, wherein the lateral support extends crosswise relative to a longitudinal axis of each multi-nozzle assembly, wherein each multi-nozzle assembly consists of a tri-nozzle that includes three fuel nozzles arranged in a generally triangular pattern. 10. The system of claim 9, wherein the three fuel nozzles share the mounting base and the inlet flow conditioner. 11. The system of claim 9, wherein the mounting base is configured to mount to a head end region of a turbine combustor. 12. The system of claim 9, comprising a non-load bearing fuel passage extending in the downstream direction from the mounting base. 13. The system of claim 9, wherein each multi-nozzle assembly comprises a flexible fuel line extending from the mounting base to a swirl vane downstream from the mounting base, the swirl vane being part of the swirl vane assembly. 14. The system of claim 9, wherein the mounting base comprises an air inlet, and the lateral support comprises an air opening configured to condition an air flow. 15. A system, comprising: a plurality of multi-nozzle assemblies, wherein each of the plurality of multi-nozzle assemblies comprises: a plurality of swirl vane assemblies; a mounting base; andan inlet flow conditioner extending directly from the mounting base in a downstream direction, wherein the inlet flow conditioner comprises a load-beating annular wall defining therethrough a plurality of air inlets, such that the inlet flow conditioner structurally supports each multi-nozzle assembly, wherein each multi-nozzle assembly consists of a tri-nozzle that includes three fuel nozzles arranged in a generally triangular pattern, the three fuel nozzles sharing the mounting base and the inlet flow conditioner. 16. The system of claim 15, comprising a lateral support extending crosswise relative to a longitudinal axis of each multi-nozzle assembly, the lateral support being inside the inlet flow conditioner.
