Can a player have two dynamite cards in front of him simultaneously or he must discard one the moment he receives the second?

You cannot simply discard Dynamite!
Once it has been played will it continue round the table until it explodes - and should you have two sticks in front of you, you might find it worth saying a small prayer when drawing cards to see if they explode!

From the FAQ on the official Dodge City Website:
D6. What happens when there are two Dynamite in play and only two players still alive?
R. The Dynamite must pass to the first player (in clockwise order) without a Dynamite already in
play. So, if the Dynamite does not explode, it stays in front of the same player, because the other
one has already another in play.
Seems like you can't get a double dynamite.

IIRC the rules in Dodge City state that the dynamites never end up on the same player, if one person already has one the second one skips him and moves to the next player. Its been a while since I looked though.

True. Dynamite is only mentioned with a single sentence, which I actually looked up before I replied, but somehow the latter half of the sentence didn't sink in - even though it is pretty clear:
"if the Dynamite does not explode, it must be passed to the first player to your left who does not already have a Dynamite in front of him."

We play with double dynamite. Makes it interesting 'cept for Lucky Duke who just smiles as all that TNT gets passed around.
We also play with the house rule that when you put out the dynamite you have to check to see if it blows up right away then you pass it left. Makes folk a bit more hesitant but adds to the fun for us.

Hmm.. why wud Lucky Duke smile? He's just as vulnerable to the Dynamite blast... His power of drawing two, choose one only comes in place AFTER he has drawn a card to see if the dynamite blows up. That draw has to be a single card no?

No, it is the other way around!
He will only draw two cards - just like anybody else - during phase 1 of his turn. But anytime he is required to "draw!" a card will he draw two cards and chose which to use.

We play with the house rule that Dynamite MUST come into play. You draw it, you play it.

That doesn't make sense to me.
Why would a law-abiding person try to kill innocent people?
This is my only gripe with the game. Too many people likes to kill other people just for the fun of it. Each player has a role to play and the game is at it's best when people try to act their role.

As a member of kerrym2000's group I can add that we definitely add that the dyanmite comes directly in play. Not for some storyline reason, but I suppose you could pretend that the person accidentally found the dynamite and keeps putting it somewhere else for the next person to find.
The reason we do it is because of the great tension it adds to your turn. It's fun to see how long it lasts. 
We just played yesterday and had 2 dynamites circling the table. Talk about fun 
Well, fun for all except those people with only 3 health. I hope they saved their Beer.
As for the random killings, we were discussing this yesterday. Maybe it is best to think of all the players entering the town for the first time. Maybe the town just had a run of bad luck and the various government agencies sent new Sherrifs and Deputies to see over the town and the various outlaws heard about a lawless town to plunder.
All of them enter the town at the same time. One has a shiney badge which proves he's the law, but the rest you have to rely on their word.
