Yes, as long as you're using a shared storage adapter (like Redis), then for the most part, duplicate registration or renewal requests should be handled.

The approach to locking we're using is somewhat simplistic (and the specifics depend on the storage adapter you're using), so there might be some rare edge-cases in which 2 requests to Let's Encrypt slip through. However, that shouldn't actually affect the functionality (the last response simply wins). Here's a bit more detail in the code: https://github.com/GUI/lua-resty-auto-ssl/blob/v0.8.2/lib/re...
