You should be able to get it to work, although I am not sure how clean
it will look in your code.

package TT1;
use CGI::Application::Plugin::TT;
TT1->tt_config( ... );

package TT2;
use CGI::Application::Plugin::TT;
TT2->tt_config( ... );

package My::CGIApp;

use TT1;
use TT2;

sub my_runmode {
  my $self = shift;

  my $tt1 = TT1->tt_obj;
  my $tt2 = TT2->tt_obj;
  return $tt1->tt_process('template.tmpl', { param1 => 'value1' } );

  # or just this
  return TT1->tt_process('template.tmpl', { param1 => 'value1' } );
}

I think it looks pretty ugly myself, and would question why you need
two Template Toolkit objects in the same application.  But I think
something along those lines should work...
