I think while neither of them had a territory to defend they coexisted because without something to fight for they are not going to take on a spider their own size, there's no point. Sooner or later though one would decide that they need to set up a permanent home and defend their territory. Theoretically any territorial animals could be kept together if they have enough room to define their own territory, in practice it is risky though, how do you know how much space is each individual is going to claim? I liken the situation with these two tarantulas to when fish are all together in the shop tank, but once home and settled in it becomes a free for all with the winner taking over the whole tank.
It will be interesting to see the video though, looking forward to it.
