Nothing detrimental will happen, with the possible exception of not exactly the same frequency response, due to damping, cable interactions, whatever. It will work, and nothing will break, but instead of one woofer per amp, run one voice coil from each woofer (rather than both coils on each woofer), to each amplifier. Then set the gains appropriately.
If this is difficult to imagine, pretend the woofers are SVC models, and you have one amp (each will be a "set"). Then, once THAT "set" is connected, do the same for the other "set".

It all reminds me of something that Molière once said to Guy de Maupassant at a café in Vienna: "That's nice. You should write it down."
