I think i recall Mr Ollivander stating that no two Ollivander wands 
are alike, so this situation is unlikely to arise in canon.
However, there is still a possibility of it happening.
The Priori Incantateum effect occurred because the core of both 
their wands shared the same origin.
So I think for the wands to be exactly alike, you would not only 
need the same wood, length and type of core, but also  cores 
from a common source. Otherwise, they would not be exactly the 
same, and thus slightly different results would be expected.
