yes it's doable
but not with standard XFree.
check this urls,
and in case you have problems with the 2nd alternative
contact the linuxconsole mailing list

possibility one: Miguel's solution
---------------------------
only multiple X terminals supported
- for 2.4 kernel patched XFree needed
- for 2.6 patched XFree + small tweak to the kernel
  to ignore usb keyboards

possibility two: linuxconsole's solution
---------------------------
mupltiple X terminals + multiple console terminals(witth linux-2.6)
(multiple console terminals is still pretty untested,
 using both X and console terminals too and is harder to setup
 compared to only X terminals)

-patched kernel (should be merged some day in mainline) 
  + optional( but recomended patched XFree)
- 2.4 version doesn't support framebuffer/ multiple console terminals
- 2.6 version do support them, but is not that tested

2.4 version, a lot of info:

main project/ 2.6 version:

best,
