I have a hunch the answer is no but is it possible to parent a prop

[I have a hunch the answer is no but is it possible to parent a prop] to two points?  I've redone my Bane character this time using the Brute figure, and I've managed to rig a tube going from the left bracer to the back of his head...but that tube needs frequent re-posing and refitting the moment I change his pose, i it possible to parent one end of the tube to the bracer and the other to the back of the head?

No. You can only parent a prop once. There are some work arounds though.

I wonder if it's possible to anchor geometry to each other using Rigid Follow Nodes. Just thinking outloud.

That is a cool work around.  I would have created a Primitive to the bracer end of the tube and added a IK chain the left bracer & pinned primitive and left the head part parented. that way you can pin/unpin the primitive which will follow the bracer when moving it on the timeline. But this only works if you were using it for animations. But for a still render using deforce is a great idea save a ton of set up time . Thanks for posting that link
