The answer seems to be "no": since none of the multiverse axioms involve two universes at once, the union of two multiverses is a multiverse. This lets you easily construct counterexamples to the claim.

Meanwhile, if we add the (in my opinion, desirable) axiom that for every *pair* of universes $M$, $N$ there is a $W$ in which both $M$ and $N$ are countable sets, then the answer is clearly "yes;" and moreover, these two statements are equivalent (given $W$ interpreting $M$ and $N$, just consider a $V$ in which $W$ is countable.
