A dual power of attorney is where you have two people handling the affairs of the principal (the person who created the power of attorney). Having two people named as agents in a power of attorney allows for each one to double check the other to make sure the affairs are handled properly.
Now in a will there is usually no power of attorney as the power of attorney expires upon the death of the principal. In a will you have what is called a personal representative (sometimes called an executor) and you can have co-executors handling the administration of the will. Each executor will function the same way as under a power of attorney and their duties will be provided under the will.
