I think I see what you're saying. You're saying they might not have room at DCA for 2 parades. I was commenting on whether they have room for 2 parades at DL.But I think the storage for DCA is separate than DL. Because of the bus drop off, Harbor Blvd, and Downtown Disney, the two backstage areas don't connect (at least above ground; there are probably tunnels underneath). Here is a mock-up of the areas:

Disneyland has a lot of area to store things behind Toontown. Some of that got removed with Star Wars land, but still considerably more than DCA. DCA just has a small area behind the Hyperion and another area behind California Screamin. PTN is a pretty big parade, so I don't know if they'd have space for both PTN and PPP.
To further complicate things at DCA, they also have to store the Viva Navidad floats (although much shorter). I know when we stayed at PPH a couple years ago we watched those floats come out after hours every night practicing for the upcoming holiday season.
