You can have as many as you have memory and CPU power for.
I like the following method for this.
I put the following lines into my
/etc/bashrc
this way I can start a session with
X
and a second with
X2
While I have 6 defined, the only time I ever ran that many
was during a demonstration of different window managers.
It was display and demo and I wasn't really doing any work
on any of them.

# Starting Multiple Sessions of X
alias x="startx -- -bpp 16 -quiet &"
alias x2="startx -- :1 -bpp 16 -quiet &"
alias x3="startx -- :2 -bpp 16 -quiet &"
alias x4="startx -- :3 -bpp 16 -quiet &"
alias x5="startx -- :4 -bpp 16 -quiet &"
alias x6="startx -- :5 -bpp 16 -quiet &"
========
edit the above to have your prefered display resolution.
I use 16 bpp above only because it was convenient.
