No, they do not.
From
http://wpilib.screenstepslive.com/s/...ribution-panel :
Since the ID ranges for different products don’t overlap there is no issue with two or more CAN nodes of different types having the same Device ID (e.g. a PDP with ID=0, a PCM with ID=0, and a Talon SRX with ID=0 on the same bus). Using multiple devices of the same type, such as multiple PCMs or multiple Jaguars with the same node ID will result in a conflict. The web plugin supports a strategy that will allow for recovery of this condition for all devices other than Jaguars, but the devices are not properly usable from within a robot program while in this state. To recover Jaguars which have been set to the same ID you will have to remove all but one of the devices from the bus, then set the devices to non-conflicting IDs.
