Do you mean multiple X servers?  Multiple x clients (e.g. more than one
xterm) is the norm. 

To start a second X server on virtual terminal 8 with 24 bit planes of
color:

     startx -- :1 -bpp 24 vt8

To start a third X server on vt9 with 8 bits of color

     startx -- :2 -bpp 24 vt9


To start, say, xeyes on the first x server but have it display on the
third:

     xeyes -display :2
