No.
One circuit, one protective device, whether it's a ring, a radial, or multiple radial branches from a common origin.
If he had put both legs of the ring into one 20A MCB and then confirmed that the earth fault loop impedance was acceptable at each and every socket outlet, then that would have been just okay, although he should have diagnosed the fault properly and separated into two entirely separate radial circuits, but to allow any circuit conductors to be energised from two different MCBs is so, so wrong.
