You can have a thousand IPs and it won't matter so long as you configure your named.conf to use a specific IP in notify-source and transfer-source.

I would expect duplicate notifications, but that's not any problem at all.

The zone would transfer once, because a serial number check is always
done before the transfer.  If a second notification was received, a
second serial number check (via SOA record) would be done, and, when
it found the same serial number, BIND would not transfer same zone a
second time.

As Torinthiel said though: try it out, and watch your logs to see
happens specifically.
