Recommendable to use an oscillator, as for example:

I am using a CTX051 crystal on my Prop board.· My question was, can this crystal be used with two Props?

No, in order to drive multiple devices you most use an active oscillator (an oscillator which has a power connection and drives it's own oscillation), the part you are using is a passive oscillator.
