Can two or more researchers from different universities work on the same research topic?
Yes. If they discover each other early enough, they will probably co-operate and co-author with each other.
But it is highly unlikely that they will be working on exactly the same research question.

If you mean working together, then my answer is yes. Examples of that collaboration include joint supervision of dissertations, and joint research projects. In another situation where you mean coincidence, then my answer is it is a probable issue, but the probability that they follow the same approach is not highly probable.
Yes, indeed it is a common practice among different researchers. You might have noticed in different research papers that different institution names are appearing with author names. It mean researchers from different institutions worked together on one research.
