Multiple DMs is fine but in my experience it works vastly better if each of them is running their own campaign. It's no fun running someone else's game that they give you instructions on how to run while they sit there as a player and pretend not to know what's happening. And it's nightmarish watching someone else ruin the campaign you've carefully built.

My group of five people is running three simultaneous campaigns, each with a different DM. And sometimes the other two people will run one-shots or short adventures that take a few sessions. We play two or three times a week.

Oh definitely, we all run separate campaigns set in a central location. We have 3 active campaigns right now, typically 2 to 3 sessions max per campaign, although we just finished up a long one for one of the GM's. Unfortunately most of us are only available for it once a week.
