If PT and transfer after spring 1L, can you try and transfer again after spring 2L?

Generally, schools require you to be at the institution for 2 years to be able to receive a degree--and you can't transfer with more than 30-32 hours.

But a transferring PT with 25 hours, would be at the 3rd school for 2.5 years.

Since this seems to be a really unique case, you should contact the school you're interested in and ask.
