Can a piece of data that would be stored on a Object storage target be stored on multiple targets to enable fault tolerance on the storage nodes w/out the need for shared storage?

Client level Raid1 or Raid5 isn't possible; however CFS has been working on the infrastructure for adding such support to Lustre, from a Lustre cvs commit message:

Add new LOV EA format which gives us fields for features needed in the post
1.0 stage (e.g. RAID, OST migration/replacement) as well as more efficient
storage than the current layout when there are few stripes on lots of OSTs.
