4-26. Art. 11. Double technical foul. A double technical foul occurs when opponents commit technical fouls against each other at approximately the same time.

Hard to say whether this applies to indirect Ts, since no "opponent" has committed these Ts. I couldn't find an A.R. that referred to this kind of case, so I'll pass on expressing an opinion.
Keep reading down to "simultaneous technical foul" (art. 15) and you'll have a definition that fits the crime.

Although, if the game was "suspended", I'd have to ask if it's really a T to add players before the "restart" of the game. It seems to me that the purpose of the rule is to prevent "surprises" and, as long as both coaches know, there's no "surprise" in adding a player during the suspension.
