If by "dual shaft" you mean "dual concentric" (two pots with two concentric shafts and two stacked knobs...all in one stacked package), then no, Mouser does not stock any concentric pots that I've ever come across.  When I need dual concentric pots, I source them from other locations on the web and/or eBay.

If by "dual shaft" you mean "dual pot" (two pots with one shaft and one knob...all in one package), they do have many varieties of those.  UTFSE @ Mouser.com and you should be able to find something close to what you need.

Good luck!

I needed a replacement pot for a boss pedal a while back; tried to order it from mouser- got the wrong thing.  After a week of headache I just called boss/roland and was able to order a replacement.  It ended up costing 3  times what it should of (I think about 8 bucks with shipping), but it worked perfectly and I didn't have to spend any more time digging through the mouser catalog.
