No. Mounting may modify the superblock, and confuse the other machine
suffisently for it to crash and leave the FS in an unexpected state.

Mmmm. Good luck :-).
I'm doing that kind of stuff here whith DRBD[1] and heartbeat[2]. The main
difference is that we have only one server active at a given time and
the data is always synchronised.
If you have the cash, you can also look for a GFS or OpenGFS[3] compatible
storage hardware. This is the ultimate trick to solve your problem, but
it gets quite expensive...
