No, you can't do this in RTC. All monsters behave independently.
Re: does possible monster group?
It has been discussed before about making groups of monsters by having more than one monster in the same image, that is instead of importing in an image with only one monster displayed it has two or more on the same image.
This is fine for having this grouped monster die, for example your 2 screamer image monster could just convert on death to a single/normal screamer.
But the problems occur on the monster moving and attack:
1) the grouped monster will not move smoothly
2) single attacks are fine, one then one, but if you want both screamers to attack at once (as well), its difficult to get the engine to assign 2 lots of damage.
So it is possible, its just not that nice.

It's not a bug in the program, I've just gone and done something weird.

@Trego: Number 2 is easy as pie. Just get your attack method to trigger the damage... then you just have another relay with a delay of 1 and make it damage aswell... But, you are correct with number 1, and that's where the problem is.
1 death is a tragedy,
10,000,000 deaths is a statistic.
