The answer to both of these questions is yes, the BeOS is compatible with such systems, and will take full advantage of both processors.

Keep in mind that as of this writing, the only such systems which support the ASPD cards are UMAX's S900 series. You might want to read the UMAX FAQs on these systems, for limitations which are hardware based and other information regarding UMAX's line of multiprocessor systems.
