Yes, you can configure more than one border router per AS. The restriction
is that they all have to contain distinct inter-AS interfaces. For
instance, you can use two border routers to communicate two user ASes of
yours, using a CHILD/PARENT "link_to" field in the "topology.json"
configuration file. You will have to add a new interface number under
"border_routers" -> "interfaces".

SCION (and scionlab) doesn't support intra-AS connectivity/configuration,
only inter-domain.

Hmm PEER, in particular, has the extra problem that is not yet supported in
the open-source implementation of the protocol, which is what we use in
scionlab. We would like to implement it soon, but we still haven't found
the resources for it.
Please don't hesitate to ask more questions if the setup is not clear, of
if you have a different need for it.
Thanks and best regards,
