Yes, there is no rule stating that you must use only one hand. In the early days of the NBA, the 'two hand set shot' was one of the popular shots. A player would stand with the ball in both hands at chest height and shoot. Click on the 'Two Hand Set Shot' link below to learn more about it.

I saw this wandering around the internet, and the answer is no. It's a subset of double dribbling, which is against the rules. It's a very difficult mistake to make, though, so I've never seen it occur in the NBA.

Just hold the ball in your hand when it is cocked back, and flick the wrist towards the basket.
