I have two initials (uppercase letters) that I can intertwine. I'd like to offer some options (fonts, colours, sizes, etc.) by creating several intertwined pairs of the same initials in the same document, but when I try - either by copying and pasting the existing initials or creating new text items - the intertwine option is greyed out.

Can intertwine only be used once in a document?

Exit Isolation Mode before copying and pasting. You can then select the new objects and intertwine,

I've used it many times in one document without issue, so your problem is not a limit of one instance. If Intertwine is unavailable, there is something else that disqualifies your selection. Perhaps if you offer more details about exactly what you're doing, someone will spot it.

Here we go:

Two uppercase letters as separate objects intertwined without a problem. Layers shows one layer 'Isolation Mode' with a sub layer 'Intertwine' and two objects in it (the initials T and H), as below:

When I select each object from the intertwined objects and copy and paste each individually, the two objects in the sub layer 'Intertwine' becomes 4 - two Ts and two Hs, as below:
