Say we have many TCP connections established between various ports. Is it possible for two of these connections on different ports (eg. 50000 -> 80, 40000 -> 80) to have identical SEQ or ACK numbers?

Yes, it is possible.
The chance for this to happen for the next established communication is n / 2^32 where n is the amount of tcp communications, and n > 0
