The second account is on the same b.net, correct? If so, your main could theoretically be actioned as well, though unlikely if they were "separate" (not xferring gold, etc). Though to your point they could ban everything based off that IP. It's Blizzard + random GM's, so one GM might ban all accounts on the IP when another wouldn't. However, usually IP bans are far less common as two entirely separate people can play on the same IP (though usually not the same b.net account).
What bot are you planning to use, and for what purpose though? I ask because botting is very hard to do efficiently nowadays, and you'll be hard pressed to make enough gold to offset your costs, especially if you're just a casual botter.
