Yes, all resource titles used in a single catalog-building run must be unique for their types(*) with respect to that catalog-building run -- those of ordinary resources, those of virtual resources (even if not realized), those of exported resources declared (even if not collected), and those of other nodes' exported resources that are collected into the catalog. A parallel uniqueness requirement applies to resource names, which are not always the same as their resources' titles. A duplicate resource (type, title) or (type, name) will cause catalog compilation to fail. If you want to be certain, however, then by all means write a test for that case.
