Is there anything stopping me from checking into my flight twice?

Some airlines even enable you to "check-in" multiple times online or in their mobile app, and give you the option of changing your seat each time you do.
Subsequent "check-ins" after the first one are really just updates of your check-in. If you look at your boarding pass, there's usually a "sequence number" (often marked SEQ, but sometimes just a 3-digit number) which shows your rank in the check-in order, and this won't change.
Getting a printed boarding pass at a kiosk or desk is quite common, even if you checked in online. It is extremely common if you have bags. Some airlines will now try to cut on the waste and avoid printing a boarding pass if you have already checked-in (unless you ask), but many still do, especially as it makes it easier to put the luggage sticker stubs somewhere useful.
Some of the low-cost airlines may be a bit more tricky, as they may want to charge you for checking in at the airport or printing a boarding pass, sometimes outrageous amounts, but I have yet to see an incumbent that will have an issue.

No. I do this all the time. Reissuing boarding passes is routine; they're easy to lose, after all.

No, but it is not considered as a double checkin. You have the same seat and the same sequence number. You only print your boarding pass twice.

Have done this so many times, with many, many airlines. I often check in online in case I'm delayed by traffic etc, at least I've bought myself some time - but if I get there on time, I too like to get the actual boarding pass.
Also for 18 months I worked for an airline in Australia, had to fly regularly and we'd regularly reprint, change, update and cancel boarding passes - outside at check in, at the service desk, and even at the gate, depending on the situation.
