Though I think it's better to put each package into its own lexical scope, as long as each package defines a new lexical @values, what you've written will work. Each newly-declared one will mask the previous one, but each function will refer to the proper incarnation.

You'll get warnings about "masks earlier declaration", but you intend to do that.

Example code: 

use strict;
use warnings;

package three;

my @values = qw(three three three);

sub show_values {
  print "@values\n";
}

package two;

my @values = qw(two two two);

sub show_values {
  print "@values\n";
}

package one;

my @values = qw(one one one);

sub show_values {
  print "@values\n";
}

package main;

three::show_values;
two::show_values;
one::show_values;
