Technically and Reality

Technically and ethically, unless the services provided are distinctly different (Acting vs Modelling vs Dancing) then you should really only have one agent. With the recent union push to allow all agents to be given the same casting information from production companies, it would be rather inconvienient for both you and your agents if you got offered the same role from each agent you had. You can only accept one of them and as such you're going to &!$$ one or more of them off. It could black list you.

In reality, there is nothing stopping you - i.e. there is no law against it as such, it simply isn't very smart and I would not recommend it to anyone.
