Tandem bikes have the potential to be faster, but it is eventually all down to the riders. For good riders on reasonably flat roads wind resistance is quite a limiting factor, and two riders on a tandem will have less wind resistance than two riders on two separate bikes.
Still, the difference isn't that big, so a good solo rider will be faster than two average tandem riders.
