I see that you've already closed this bug with a documentation update only,
but for the record: yes, you can ship multiple optional configs for the same
module.  If you do this, at most one of the configs should be marked
'Default: yes', and each of the configs should declare that it 'Conflicts'
with the others.  See <https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PAMConfigFrameworkSpec> for
full details (sorry, haven't incorporated this documentation into the pam
package yet).
