If you mean two keys in the same column, then Chicago Steno should be fine. I resin printed a set for my humla and they are nice and comfortable (I like them more than LDSA).

Ergonomic, split and other weird keyboards
Rules
Keep it ergo
Posts must be of/about keyboards that have a clear delineation between the left and right halves of the keyboard, column stagger, or both. This includes one-handed (one half doesn't exist, what clearer delineation is that!?)
i.e. no regular non-split¹ row-stagger and no non-split¹ ortholinear²
¹ split meaning a separation of the halves, whether fixed in place or entirely separate, both are fine.
² ortholinear meaning keys layed out in a grid

+1 for CS, my favorite choc caps by far and great for vertical combos
probably the keycaps that people use for steno should do what you’re looking for. Idk specifically what keycaps any of them use, but take a look at the Uni (https://stenokeyboards.com) and see if you can figure out which keycaps they use - those should play nice with your idea
this example seems to use Cherry style keycaps, but that direction should take you to a choc set that works
I am using MCC from Moergo Glove80 with convex 1u in thumb cluster - should work for double press of adjacent keys and steno mode. Besides, POM is pleasant material. https://www.moergo.com/collections/moergo-keycap-collection
