The initramfs should choose which root filesystem to mount on the basis of kernel options like root=. Thus, it's perfectly possible to have one initramfs work for two different OSs (with different kernels and root partitions); you'd simply have to be careful that the components in the initramfs were compatible with both, or else components for both were contained and correctly selected. It's probably easier to make two initramfs and tell the Grub entries to load the correct one, though.
