no, you need both mp's to run on dual, you need an mp to run in a dual motherboard.

It is possible to mod the XP into an MP, but i do not know how LOL. Do a google search for, or i am sure there are other posts on modding them.

If you modify the Athlon XP so that it will be recognized as an Athlon MP, it should work, yes.
However, stable operation can only be guaranteed when using two Athlon MP processors, because unlike their Athlon XP counterparts, these have been tested/validated for stable operation in a dual-CPU configuration.
That doesn't necessarily mean it won't work, it just means that you won't get support from either AMD or the motherboards' manufacturer if it doesn't work stably.

As long as they are both the same model(i.e. you use either two model 8 parts or two model 10 parts) it is possible, yes.
Using a model 8 and a model 10 part together will most likely NOT work.
Generally, when using modified Athlon XP's instead of Athlon MP's the same thing that i stated above applies: They will prolly work, but it can't be guaranteed.
