No, of course you don't, you can use a different prefix in each stylesheet
module. As always its the namespace URI that must match, not the prefix.
Perhaps the keyword "implements-prefix" confused you, it really means
"implements-namespace-denoted-by-prefix", just as "exclude-result-prefix"
means "exclude-result-namespace-denoted-by-prefix".
