Can multiple slaves connect to the same master using the same credentials?

Can two slaves connect to the same master using the _same_ credentials 
and have replication work properly?

Why do I want to do this? I would like to deploy identical KDC slaves 
using Kubernetes "pods". Since the pods are identical, they would be 
using the same credentials.

Of course, in Kubernetes there are ways around this (e.g., using 
StatefulSets) but if the slaves could all use the same credentials this 
would make things simpler.
