Identical monitors will certainly have identical gamuts, because the
phosphors or color filters will be the same. The remaining differences are
exactly the sort of thing that monitor calibration software eliminates, by
building appropriate color lookup tables. Simple LUTs can't correct for
different primary colors, which is why you can't use them to match
dissimilar monitors.
