Not a good idea I'm afraid for many reasons. Males will likely fight especially round breeding season. Also, if one gets sick, so will the other and if you have a problem with regurg or a bad poo you will not know which it was.

Snakes are solitary by nature and best kept as such,

I keep a male and a female in together but my other male is in a seperate viv. Never put 2 males together, for many, many reasons most of which have been mentioned above.
