That matters.  So basically, to the outside, the machine looks like
two, one called something.somedom.com and something.somedom.net.
There's no problem at all having one certificate for each of those
hosts.  Actually, that's the normal modus operandi.

If the certs are connected to anything, it's host names (FQDNs, that
is) and IP addresses (in IPsec world).

Cheers,
Richard
