If I understood correctly:
The decoded image is held in GPU memory. One must use the same GPU for decoding that is used for displaying the decoded image.
The benefit of hardware video decoding would be lost if it would be copied to system memory and then to the other GPU.

If I understood correctly:
The decoded image is held in GPU memory. One must use the same GPU for decoding that is used for the browser's OpenGL rendering engine which imports the decoded image without copy.
