I dont' think i have ever seen a s set of canti-pull compatible combo MTB brake/shifter levers in 3x9. There were quite a few in the 3x7-3x8 days but by the time the 9 speed era had hit, MTB bikes pretty much came with v-brake levers. All the integrated 9 speed stuff were v-brake/disc brake compatible.
Can the travel agents be used in reverse? I never thought to try that. I have used travel agents on a couple of my bikes where I had canti/caliper levers and wanted to use full size v-brakes and they worked fine but I'm not sure if they are designed to be used in reverse. If they can, then that is your answer!!
