No, I am not talking about using one CD key for two different people. I
am talking about two people - with two CD keys - using the same account at
the same time. My cousin and I have been playing some HC lately, with
both of us using characters from a single account. There does seem to be
a problem if both of us are in the create/join screen, but otherwise we
have not had any real problems.

You can have any number of characters from the same account in a game. But
only one character from each account may be in chat at a time. If you have
more than one both will be kicked out.

Actually Mark, that not entirely true. I mule between characters on
the same account all the time and this is what happens.
If character on CD key A is in a game and I log on with another CD key
B with the same Char, that character on CD key B will get a
"Failed to Join Game". Character on CD key A will be ok and remain in
chat/game. I do it all the time. I sometime forget which character I
log into first.

But I think the OP is talking about using different chars from the same
account. In that case I've experienced exactly what Mark has indicated.

Following up on comments from Dave, Mark, Art
I have muled and even rushed different chars from the same account -
in the same game.

In my experience two can not be in the join game screen
thats when mine have been kicked out.
