Yes, you can provision them to tell them that they are on the same circuit. They will then communicate with each other over WiFi to share the available current on that circuit as necessary.
The Gen 3 Wall Connector manual explicitly states that each charger "must have its own branch circuit". You can feed a subpanel from a single breaker. but each Wall Connector should have it's own breaker in the subpanel.

I expect that this is done to provide fire protection because doing this eliminates any unprotected wire junctions. If you feed multiple Wall Connectors from a single breaker, then you will need to form junctions downstream of the breaker that are not monitored. Each Wall Connector has temperature sensors that will detect a faulty connection at the baseplate. But a wire junction - even inside the breaker panel - is unprotected and could lead to fire or severe wiring damage.

This is the same reason that the Gen 3 Wall connector is not to be used with an outlet. The Gen 3 Wall Connector does not have provisions for a temperature sensor in a power connector (the Gen 2 Wall Connector did). Without the temperature sensor, a faulty connection at the outlet can lead to undetected overtemp and fire.
