is it even possible to connect two USB-C displays to one MacBook Pro 15" 2018?
Seems like MacOS intentionally shuts down one of them. I'm a bit puzzled why..

You should absolutely be able to do this. From Apple's web site
Video Support
Simultaneously supports full native resolution on the built-in display at millions of colors and:
Up to two displays with 5120-by-2880 resolution at 60Hz at over a billion colors Up to four displays with 4096-by-2304 resolution at 60Hz at over a billion colors
Thunderbolt 3 digital video output
Native DisplayPort output over USB‑C VGA, HDMI, DVI, and Thunderbolt 2 output supported using adapters (sold separately)
However USB-C/Thunderbolt can be a bit finicky/picky about cables and monitors. Perhaps if you shared your exact configuration (cables/lengths, monitors, etc.) we might be able to help. Just add that info to your original question.
Thanks to @Steve Chambers for pointers. What I had to do: just change changed resolution using "scaled resolution" selector for one of external screens and it worked for me. Now both external displays show image. I don't know why, but it worked.
