You can have two AVDs running in Android Studio just not two of the same devices. When you start a device, it locks it's necessary files. This lock causes and error when you try to start a second instance of the same device. To solve this just create another device via AVD manager and then you should not have a problem running them both at the same time.

Two emulators running at the same time
