Yes—but keep the two goals distinguishable
You can use Acting As If for two goals at once. The practical issue is not whether the method permits it; it is whether combining targets makes the exercise clearer or more cluttered. Acting As If is behavioural rehearsal based on a preferred future identity, and two goals are manageable when each has a small context-specific behaviour; trying to perform two future identities all day is exhausting.
Two goals work best when you can name the next action for each without turning the practice into an all-day management system. If the second target doubles the ritual but does not improve a decision, reduce the method rather than adding more structure.

When one combined practice makes sense
Combine the goals only when they genuinely share a higher-level direction. “Build a calmer week” might include both sleep and workload. Two unrelated outcomes usually benefit from separate notes or sessions because the obstacles, timelines and evidence are different.

A useful test is to write one line for each goal: what changes in your own behaviour this week? If the answer is vague, the method is probably bundling desires without producing a plan.
A method-specific way to organise it
With Acting As If, two goals are manageable when each has a small context-specific behaviour; trying to perform two future identities all day is exhausting. Use Behaviour Experiment Planner as an organiser if it helps, but do not let separate trackers, streaks or counts create twice the checking.
The simplest structure is often goal A, short practice, stop; goal B, short practice, stop. You can also alternate days if simultaneous work feels mentally noisy.
Example
Speak once in the meeting for career confidence and pack training clothes for fitness; each experiment is concrete. The important feature is that the actions remain separate even if both goals matter. That prevents success in one area from being treated as a “sign” about the other.
What to measure
Measure feedback from actual behaviour, skills and decisions. For two goals, use two small measures rather than one vague feeling of alignment. A career goal might use applications sent; a savings goal might use money transferred. The measures do not have to prove the manifestation theory. They simply tell you whether the practice is helping you function.
Avoid ritual inflation
Two goals can quietly turn a short method into double repetitions, double imagery or double checking. Decide the maximum time before starting. When the limit is reached, both sessions are finished even if one feels less satisfying.

If a goal needs urgent action, prioritise the action. The manifestation exercise should not consume the time required to make the call, send the form, study, rest or have the conversation.
Use two behaviours, not two full-time characters
Two goals are manageable when each gets one context-specific experiment. For career confidence, contribute one prepared point in a meeting. For fitness, lay out training clothes and attend the planned session.
Do not spend the whole day asking how two different future selves would speak, shop, stand and feel. The method is most useful as behavioural rehearsal. Small experiments create evidence without turning identity into constant performance.
Use Behaviour Experiment Planner as a boundary, not a scorecard
For this exact question—Can you do Acting As If for two goals at once?—the tool is most useful when it records a decision or structures one short session. Do not use it to chase perfect streaks, eliminate doubt or turn completion into proof that the method is working. Write the relevant action beside the exercise, then leave the tool closed until the next planned review.
Bottom line
Yes, you can do Acting As If for two goals at once. Keep the goals distinct, cap the workload, connect each to its own evidence and next action, and simplify if the technique starts taking more attention than the goals themselves.
