I think you meant to ask if the Discovery Server and be the same hardware as the AR Server. I can't give a 100% percent answer on this but what I can tell you is Configuration Discovery uses the same port as the mid tier so those applications can't be bundled on the same equipment. I also would say for performance reasons alone, FD/TD and Configuration Discovery should be installed on non-shared hardware.
