They can go any which way you can think of, as long as they don't have
bends that will hold water (like a P trap) to close off the air exhaust.

Further. To avoid several holes in our roof (kitchen, bathroom, main
stack etc.) we took all our vents through the attic to one place (the
main vent stack) and joined them all together for one vent through the
roof. The kitchen for example is some 20+ feet from the main stack
vent.
Been that way since 1970, no problems. Everything vents as it should.
