You could add 2 towers if you like, but
#1 - it will probably be more expensive,
#2 - you will be adding unnecessary extra space that the freezer has to cool
#3 - you will need to build a tower cooler for both towers.
Two towers would be more inefficient than just a standard dual tap tower.

The regulator has a shut off valve on both sides of the Y-splitter. Just turn off whichever line is not used. If you choose not to shut it off, make sure the unused keg coupler handle is in the up position. That will stop the flow of CO2. Its easier to just shut the valve off and not worry about leaks.

If you decide to go with 2 regulators, you can purchase the battery series regulator.
Dual Primary Regulator If you have a regulator already, you can add this
Add On Regulator
The links that I posted will help you run two kegs that require different CO2 pressures. If you purchase the kit in the link you posted above, the regulator that is included will allow you to run 2 kegs, however, you will be forced to run the same pressure to both kegs. To fix this, you can purchase the regulator in the second link, the Add-On.

Yes, as stated above, you should be able to get 8-10 full size kegs out of a 5lb canister.
