To run multi-monitor you'd need the monitor to embed a DP-MST hub or embed a USB 3 video device if you only used a single port.
The alt-mode capability cannot traverse a hub.
More likely you'd have dual cables running to dual monitors. Each monitor could provide internal USB 3.1 hubs and associated devices plus feed 100W back up the line if needed.

IIRC, the apple thunderbolt displays have things like ethernet, etc on the monitor itself, though I don't think gen-1 supported multiple displays on a single connection, it wouldn't surprise me if this one changed said passthrough.
