would i be able to group multiple disk back within a duration of 3-5mins if i've got a 2 disk failure in the EVA?

Hi,

The grouping is done in 3-5 min.
But the relevelling of the disks can take a while. This depends on the capacity of your EVA and the size of your disks

Hopefully, not in the same RSS

Groupping a disk is very fast, but the new available capacity won't be seen fully until leveling finishes.

The moment you GROUP the first disk it will be taken into DiskGroup and releveling of DiskGroup will start, it's not recommended to GROUP the second disk at the time when releveling is ACTIVE but very much possible to do that and releveling will restart from 0%. I have done this myself and it works without errors, so if you are running out of time, you can do that.
