Can I use both at the same time? If not, especially in 3, then would Barrier be a better alternative due to Tech Armor eating up recharge times?

You can use both at the same time in both ME2 and ME3.
Not really sure why you would use both in ME2 (just Tech Armor is generally preferred), but go for it. Geth Shield Boost may be better early instead of Barrier since you can get the Tech Cooldown upgrade sooner than the Biotic Cooldown upgrade.
Fortification is better than Barrier in ME3, since it provides better damage protection bonuses. It can also provide better power damage bonuses too, depending on evolutions taken.

You totally can equip two shield powers in ME2 and ME3. If you're looking for double layer shields, I imagine you're next playthrough will be using an aggressive playstyle, like a shotgun wielding Sentinel in ME2 or a walking armory in ME3. If so, you may have fun with this Sentinel build using tech armor and defense matrix. bsn.boards.net/thread/1856/effect-single-sentinel-walking-kronner |

I love Fortification in ME3. It's my most frequently selected bonus power. I have used it on Sentinels, but it's probably a bit overkill. You will likely get more out of AP Ammo, Stasis, or whatnot.

You can do it in 2, but I imagine you are still better off with a "one point wonder" power. For Sentinel, Slam, Stasis and Neural Shock are all consistent with the class too.
