There are quite few examples of custom-built tandem tractors. The smallest I'm aware of is a tandem Fordson Major, but you can conceivably do it with almost any tractor.

If you look at the more modern tandem construction equipment (twin-engine scrapers, for example), they use air controls for the throttles and shift, and are exclusively automatic transmissions. Rigging up the remote clutch and transmission controls for a manual transmission has to be pretty complicated.
