I think they will be fine sleeping in the same crate; however, you will want to separate them if fight in a way that will physically harm one of them or if you notice vomit or a problem with one of their stools. This means one of them is sick, and you won't know which one if they're staying in the same condo.

Here's some information that may help you out a little:
