I presently have a single outlet NEMA 6-20 outlet on a 20 Amp 240 V circuit. Can I install two NEMA 6-15 outlets on the same circuit instead?
Duplex Nema 6-15 outlets are rare, but Leviton does make one. On their site in the description is the word "Canadian". Are these legal in the United States?

Yes, you can put multiple properly rated receptacles on a circuit, regardless if it is 120V, 240V, or 120/240V.
I don't know why the word Canadian is in that description, but a duplex 6-15R is perfectly fine in the US.
A 20A circuit with multiple receptacle outlets can use either 15 or 20 amp receptacles.
