No, in a Modicon M580 system, you cannot install two CPUs on a single backplane for redundancy configuration.

▶ Reason and Official Configuration Requirements
To configure CPU redundancy in M580:

1) Two separate backplanes are required.
2) Each backplane must have its own CPU: one for Primary and one for Standby.
3) The two backplanes are connected and synchronized via Ethernet cables using RIO or ERIO networks.
