Drupal can definitely do this. Do a stock installation on both servers and configure settings.php to point to the same DB for both instances. Have fun.

With this last, it sounds like you *may* be in a use case for Django.
It's not a CMS per se, but could fairly easily be molded into that use
case.  In fact, it was written by a newsroom environment, which sounds
like what you may have going on.  In terms of the content creators and
editors, one of Django's strongest contributions is it's
"Admin"
interface.  In terms of your specific single-db multiple-interface
requirement, it claims to be able to do so.

For more CMSy stuff, I've heard rumors that Drupal can do this, but
haven't checked them out.
