(in the US) You may actually own real estate in several states, however, you can only claim one state as your legal residence. However for tax purposes multiple states can claim you and force you to pay taxes (like if Legal residence and Statutory residence differ).

Also: The US recognizes but does not encourage Dual Citizenship (see US state department website)

Yes, if they don't live together, or live together only part of the time, and maintain separate residences in different states otherwise.

Additional: CAVEAT! If either or both states offer a homestead exemption to your personal domicile, check the state's laws carefully. I believe that you are legally able to collect only ONE homestead exemption.

Yes it is possible to have dual (or even more) nationality. However SOME countries do not allow this and require that - to be a citizen of their country you must relinquish all other citizenships.

No. All state's have residency laws. Until you have lived in a state the specified time, you are considered a resident of the state in which you moved from.
