Unless timed so that one of the blocks directly under the group is broken last of the four (which would be a narrow window), then no, because once the both blocks directly beneath the feet are broken, everyone drops down and the mouse cursor shifts. The whole point of tandem mining (Really, it's just tandem shaft-digging) is so both players never have to move their mouse to effectively descend at double-speed.

On a separate note: Shouldn't it be noted in the article that both players should have the same pickaxe? It may seem obvious, but, to some, so does this whole technique, so I believe it warrants a note.
