You will need a dish with dual LNB's in order to do this (with standard DTV).
With a dual LNB dish you can connect two recievers directly to it
(with 2 cables). You could also use a multiswitch to split those two
to 4 or more.
If there is only one cable coming in from the dish you can use a
"stacker" located at the dish to take the signals from the 2 LNB's and
"stack" them on the single cable. Then you would use the "destacker"
to seperate that into two connections that you could directly connect
to 2 boxes or to a multiswitch for 3 or more recievers.
This page explains it with some diagrams:
