Can you use rdesktop/mstsc (windows remote desktop) to get access to both your remote monitors?
(So, if my own machine has 2 monitors, and I'm somewhere else, also with 2 monitors, is there anyway I can use remote desktop to access both monitors remotely)?

Remote Desktop doesn't support this, you'll always only get a single monitor.
Some remote control applications have multi-monitor support, for example pcAnywhere and some versions of VNC.

Remote Desktop doesn't even use the remote computer's monitors. It creates it's own virtual monitor, and you can make that virtual monitor various sizes up to the full-screen size of your local monitor.
For example, the computer I remote into has 2 monitors at 1024x768, while my main local monitor is 1280x1024 (secondary is 1024x768). I currently have the Remote Desktop window set at 1152x864 (greater than one of the remote monitors, but less than my primary local monitor) when connecting to that remote computer.
I haven't tried it in local Span mode, but I would guess that you could set the resolution of the window all the way up to the complete spanned size of the local "monitor".
