Answer:

Praise be to Allah, the Lord of the Worlds; and blessings and peace be upon our Prophet Muhammad and upon all his Family and Companions.
It is not possible to see somebody in two different places at the same time. Scholars believe that if this happens, it is that a devil takes the pictorial expression of someone to mislead and seduce people. Perhaps you can see somebody in Makkah while he is verily at his homeland. This is a factual devilish personification, especially if this will help one to claim his being a holy man or an intermediary between people and Allah. This, in fact, is the Devil's goal and wish.
And Allah knows best.
