Is it possible to create a hybrid from on-premise Exchange to 2 separate 365 tenancies?

I am working with a customer, a college, where they currently use a single AD/Exchange Forest running as a hybrid to a 365 tenant.  The setup includes two separate colleges, managed by a single IT team, which they now want to separate into 2 tenants, but retaining a single on premise AD

I know we can split OUs and sync different areas of one AD using AAD Connect to the 2 tenants, but I have seen conversations that you can only run a hybrid to a single Exchange tenant from our on premise forest.  Has anyone tried this?

If I can't run the HCW twice, once for each tenant, I can't see how I will be able to create/manage users in the non-hybridised tenant?
