Is it's possible to create single language that cover desktop and web? Like D+Dart?
It is probably not possible with D or any other language that is too far off from Javascript since the generated code becomes to large for fast download. Even Dart has this problem.
It is in theory possible to use DartVM on the desktop using native bindings:

I ask becouse I can't understand why it's need 2 language if they are very simmiler and it's can be 1 language instead 2.
There are several languages that do source2source compilation and that can compile both to C and javascript. The problem is to find good tools and libraries…
There are also scripting frameworks that let you write portable code for web and mobile platforms, but they tend to be geared towards a special type of application.
E.g. http://www.tidesdk.org/ http://cordova.apache.org/ http://get.adobe.com/air/
