I'm not really sure, but I looked at the code, and I think its not possible at the moment.

As I see the new bubble (how a tooltip is called) is always positioned below the others....
(in display.c, function stack_display_position_sync_bubble)

y += bubble_get_future_height (async);
y += EM2PIXELS (defaults_get_bubble_vert_gap (d), d)
     - 2 * EM2PIXELS (defaults_get_bubble_shadow_size (d), d);

you can see, they add always the size, if you change this to "-=" instead of "+=" and if you now change in defaults.c the function defaults_get_top_corner and add at the bottom:
*y = [height of you screen - 200] it may works... But it's a really bad solution!

I haven't read the code at all, and I'm not sure if it's really works... But if you're a developer you may can change it, its open source;-)

If you wish that the popups apear on both monitors I think you have to run two daemons, but this is not possible... (or you have to change a lot in the code...)
