Yes, so far from experience I have see that the first parameter would 
always be eth0, second eth1 and third eth2. So if you specify,
vif = [ 
"mac=00:16:3e:7b:0e:a4,bridge=br10,script=vif-bridge","mac=00:16:3e:7b:0e:a9,bridge=br20,script=vif-bridge" 
]
eth0 would be bind to br10 and eth1 to br20.

AFAIK, no. I am not sure though about paravirtualized guests.
