Details

Using the following in both the background page and content script

> new SharedWorker(browser.extension.getURL("js/shared-worker.js"))
>
> // shared-worker.js
> console.log("created instance")

I get
> 14:36:24.738 created instance  shared-worker.js:4:1
> 14:36:14.137 created instance  shared-worker.js:4:1
SharedWorkers can only be shared within the same process, and the background and content scripts are not guaranteed to be in the same process.
