You should never co-hab two snakes together, so no you should not. Reasons being,
1) Cannibalism
2) If there is a regurge, which one regurged?
3) Sicknesses/diseases spread rapidly
4) Both snakes will be stressed (may even go off food)
5) Neither snake is benefiting, in fact they would rather be alone
6) If poop is weird, who's poop is it?
I'm sure others will chime in as well. Best they have their own enclosure.

In order to avoid risks such as
a) snakes eating each other
b) not knowing which one vomited if one were to vomit
c) transference of illnesses and/or infections
d) anxiety
e) competitive behaviors that inhibit the ability of each individual snake to thrive
f) not knowing which one had the strange looking feces if one happens to have strange feces
I think its best to have the snakes housed in separate houses, I think others will voice echoing sentiments as well.
