I think they'll accept it. Maybe we're supposed to say we are sending individual letters and then we can forward the letters through interfolio. I'm sure they've encountered this before.
Let me know what you think / what you wind up doing, I'm in the same position 🙂

According to Tuft's website:
Applicants must submit a minimum of either:
Three individual letters (we do not specify the nature of the authors) that will arrive at the admissions office separately
or
A "package" of letters that will arrive from the applicant's undergraduate or post-baccalaureate school's premedical office or career-services office. The nature of the "package" varies greatly from school to school. Some schools write an official premedical committee letter and append individual letters; some schools write "composite" letters which refer to and quote individual letters; some schools simply collect, collate, and distribute individual letters. We accept all variations.
Applicants may submit an unlimited number of additional letters beyond our minimum requirements.

My take on this information: Interfolio would count as a "package" of letters. The letters do not arrive separately, ergo you should select that you are sending the package alternative (i.e. the simple collection, collation, and distribution of individual letters.)
I'm not sure about your situation, but my school's pre-professional advising / career services unit has an affiliation with Interfolio, so I'm sure this is the correct option when addressing this question.
