Anything is possible, but why would you want to?

Usually twin turbo is for twin banks (V-6 or V-8) or sequential (small turbo to spool up bigger turbo)

Limited by space and funding.

There was mock up a few years ago at an autoshow but I don't think it ever ran. I don't think the engine can support twin turbos without major internal engine strengthening. I have seen a few 500 whp S2000's in magazine but they all have engine swaps.

I think that was the one. It was towed to the show and towed away from the show. At the time, somebody who knew somebody who knew the owner posted afterwards with some reason why it was towed and claimed that it did run and ran well. However, that poster never came back with any further posts on the subject, so I think we can conclude that it was just talk. Rumour had it that it could not even idle. Sure "looked" good and scared little kids.
