you can run multiple vnc sessions
but they will show the same display screen
vnc shows windows terminal display 0
which is why there is a problem with fast-user-switching
if I log in as user1 then do a logout>switch user
session 0 is still in use by user1
if a second user2 logs in and is active a problem occurs
when you vnc to the station it connects to session 0
logging the second user out of their session
and the vnc session will go back to the login screen
now you could set up user mode server for each user to access that
logged in users session
of course on a different port to not knock out that user2 session
but I do not believe each user can be logged in at the same time
please test and report your findings :-)
