Both the nv(4) and x11/nvidia-driver drivers support multi-head.  In fact
I've setup 3-4 heads using two cards, each with dual support.

It shouldn't matter what cards/slots you put the video cards in, X.org
supports multi-head configurations with different and similar cards.  The
only problem I've seen is with motherboards that have onboard video, I've
not been able to use both the onboard video and a video card at the same
time.
