Yeah. The common usage of interwiki links on en:wp is "that article over there is roughly equivalent to this one." I have seen en:wp articles pointing to two de:wp articles, quite reasonably.
I disagree with the "quite reasonably" part. Interlanguage links ought to represent a closer connection than that. If one enwiki article "corresponds" to two dewiki articles, then neither of the dewiki articles should be links from the enwiki article. Perhaps a disambiguation page on dewiki could be linked from the enwiki page.
