So why go for raid0 at all?
It is the least secure way to store data.

Just to know, if anyone doing the same as above, if yes what are the
constraints?


Exclusive lock on RBD images will kill any (theoretical) performance gains. 
Without exclusive lock, you lose some of RBD features.


Plus, using 2+ clients with single images doesn't sound like a good idea.

My thought was - Ceph block volume with raid#0 (means I mounted a ceph
block volumes to an instance/VM, there I would like to configure this
volume with RAID0).

Just to know, if anyone doing the same as above, if yes what are the
constraints?

Thanks

Hard to tell if you mean raid0 over a block volume or a block volume over
raid0. Still, it is seldom a good idea to stack redundancies on top of each
other.
It will work, but may not give the gains you might expect from it.
