  Currently no - sorry. There can be multiple Editor instances for a single DataTable, but currently not multiple tables for a single Editor instance. You'd need to make two Editor instances.

  Thanks, @allan.

  Based on that, here's my solution in case anyone else is looking for something similar:

  // Specify everything except the table
  const editor_config = {
     blah blah blah
  }
  
  // Create an instance for each table
  new DataTable.Editor(
      $.extend(
          editor_config,
          {table: '#employees-from-north-america'}
      )
  )
  new DataTable.Editor(
      $.extend(
          editor_config,
          {table: '#employees-from-europe'}
      )
  )
  

  This allows me to update editor_config only once and the changes are reflected in both editor instances.
