I booked a mileage run for a Saturday a few years ago, which was SEA-LAX / LAX-SEA and SEA-SFO / SFO-SEA. After booking, I got an email that one of the reservations was invalid and would be canceled. When I called, they explained that the system doesn't allow two reservations on the same day, departing from the same airport, without some manual intervention. They worked their magic, and I was able to keep both bookings.
I was actually planning to fly both reservations, though. Not sure how they'd feel about keeping two reservations where you're going to cancel one. Seems to me that may be why the system flags multiple reservations leaving from the same city on the same day -- to keep people from doing what you're trying to do.
