Generally, No. We cannot deploy multiple instances with same product id.

I am not sure why you want to do this but if you do want to deploy two or more instances (for you not for the device), generate a new GUID and replace product id in Property/Assembly.cs(assembly guid), Property/WMAppManifest.xml (product id) and Package.appxmanifest (product name).

See if it can meet your test requirement. But I will suggest you share what you want to test and see if others can share some tips.
