Is a professor orb restricted in any way regarding the language choices it can have? For instance, can a professor orb know Modron or Vegypygmy as languages?

Additionally, is it possible to possess and use multiple professor orbs with the same character?

The DM decides which languages an orb knows.

The description of the Professor Orb states (Waterdeep: Dungeon of the Mad Mage, p. 284):

The orb speaks, reads, and understands four languages [...]

It gives no guidance concerning which languages or which types of languages are eligible, so the DM determines which languages an orb knows. Additionally, as a Professor Orb does not require attunement, there is nothing preventing a character from owning two Professor Orbs, except of course, the DM. If the DM wants to give out two orbs, then they can.
