Allowing multi-instance execution won't help.

Do the two files have the same structure? If yes, then you can use multiple File properties in the Sequential File stage.

If not you will need separate Sequential File stages, or the ability to use the Schema File property to load the data one file at a time in to a common format in, perhaps, a Data Set.
