Ive done it on my own server before but i think they removed the 
connect_splitscreen command,
it still may be possible

find "split screen"
"ss_enable" = "0"
 client
 - Enables Split Screen support. Play Single Player now launches into 
split screen mode. NO ONLINE SUPPORT
"host_writeconfig_ss"
 - Store current settings to config.cfg (or specified .cfg file) with 
first param as splitscreen index.

"in_forceuser" = "0"
 cheat
 - Force user input to this split screen player.

"ss_map"
 - Start playing on specified map with max allowed splitscreen players.

"cmd1"
 - sets userinfo string for split screen player in slot 1
"cmd3"
 - sets userinfo string for split screen player in slot 3
"cmd2"
 - sets userinfo string for split screen player in slot 2
"cmd4"
 - sets userinfo string for split screen player in slot 4

So people use ss_enable 1( maybe 2 for 2 players etc etc)
Then i guess they connect from the single player game into a server and 
theyre connecting as a splits screen player but as one steamid to the 
server,  I believe all of this is left over from the 360 version where 
split screen happens all the time, splitscreen is possible on the PC i 
believe if you have a 360 controller, wether its legitimate or not who 
knows.

Maybe even the possibility of cross platform gaming?? did this person 
figure out how to on the console of the 360 version?

Yay or Nay dont see why it shouldnt be possible.
