Some respecs stack, some don't. Personally, I get something like 6 just for creating a character due to various vet rewards and such, so yes, it's quite possible to carry around more than one.
As to those two specifically, I think they add up and you'll have two. The only ones I know for certain don't stack are the "freespecs" given away from time to time when a major change is made to the game that "forces" a large portion of players to re-think their builds (making the Fitness pool inherent, for example). Those, you can only ever have one of.
FUN FACT: That burst of light when you level up is actually the effectiveness escaping from your enhancements all at once.
The trial respecs, veteran respecs, and patron pool respecs are all "earned" respecs - they stack.

Negaduck: I see you found the crumb. I knew you'd never notice the huge flag.
Earned respecs (Vet respecs, trial respecs, etc) will stack.
Free respecs (generally those given out by the devs) will not stack.
They ALL float down here. When you're down here with us, you'll float too!

Ok guys thank you for the replies, now time to search the forums for a cheap ss/fa build until i get infamy built up.

Just to clarify you can only have one freespec but that is in addition to normal respecs.

1) I NEVER buy IO's from the auction house. I sometimes buy RECIPES but never crafted IO's
2) High priced goodies like miracle/numina uniques, LotG global recharges, and things of that nature I tend to buy with Alignment Merits that I earn while leveling through SSA's and/or Tip missions. I may also use alts to get more Alignment Merits for more recipes if I don't have enough on that specific character. I never actually buy these things with Inf. incidentally I don't touch SSA's till lvl 20 after I have confirmed my alignment so I can be sure to get alignment merits for the first play through of each as well as subsequent weekly play throughs.
3) If I need liquid assets (Inf), I will buy an expensive recipe using Alignment Merits, Craft it and then sell it on the auction house.
4) I try to get an idea of uncommon and rare salvage I'll need for the things I want and keep those things on hand so I don't have to buy them. I also avoid overpriced salvage when people seem to be spiking prices and turn to AE for tickets to buy expensive salvage.
You have to remember it's not just about how much money you have, it's also about how much you spend. By curtailing your expenditures and maximizing your profits you'll be surprised at just how easy it is to trick out a character. Taking advantage of Reward Merits and Alignment Merits to acquire valuable things and also make Inf is what I consider the smart way to play without actually "grinding" for cash.

Mids' has a nifty way of giving you a list of all the salvage you will need to craft each IO you choose to slot. This way, you can scrounge around before you respec and get everything together -- sort of. The amount of salvage required is going to exceed what you can stash on you character and in the vault. So, you're going to have to craft as you go.
In the meantime, you should place some lowball bids for some items, and you should also feel free to use converters. Think smart, though. If I need a "miracle +recovery", I am not going to buy a cheaper miracle and try to convert that. I'd burn through converters pretty quick if the rng wasn't friendly. I'd reserve converters for things like taking a Kinetic Combat knockback proc and changing into any of the other 4. (That way you win regardless of the exchange.)
You might also get Red Fortunes, and convert them out of set, but in the defense category into LotG's. You might get lucky. The very first time I used converters, I got two 7.5% global recharges in a row. 
The more characters you have over level 20 that have re-enforced their morality as hero or villain, the easier it will be to get all the stuff you need. Alignment tips get dull after a while, but they are a means to an end, and if you team instead of going solo, that can help break the monotony of doing the same tips repeatedly.
Don't totally discount the AE. As an SS/FA you can reach ticket max in a few minutes, maybe 5 or 7 minutes, depending on your build and your toons abilities. The AE is the cheapest way to get that very rare salvage. When you're talking about 60+ enhancements that may require 70 or 80 pieces of very rare salvage, that is going to add up.
If you're fairly social, you might try to mention the efforts your going through on a public channel. I routinely give away millions to folks starting out that have reached level 50, just to help ease the pain of having to work so much on something that they already know how to do. (and because I'd rather team with someone who has a solid build, and SOs, comparatively for most powersets, are junk.)
