i made a point of not having 2 kids of different ages in nappies and bottles... and mine ar all 2 1/2 yrs apart ((last 2 are 22 mths apart)) but i dont see the harm in a bottle JUST at bed time?... and as for pull-ups at night... dont tell him i told u this but my son was still wetting the bed earlier this year.. and hes 5... not every night mind u, but accidents do happen... he would deny vehemently if u asked him tho...
but seeing as ur having twins, and u HAVE twins on the go already, i think some prep work b4 the arrival might b a good idea..
if u can handle some tough love, heres my idea... when they go to bed... just tell them they are big boys now, only babies have bottles , and the only babies in the house are in ur tummy... and just dont give them the bottles...with both my boys, by the 5th night they didnt even ask 4 it and went straight to sleep... big dinner bath book then bed... they where fine.. but like i sed.. u have to b tough or it wont work... thats just how i did it... not saying it works for every 1 tho.. most mums cant handle their babies crying for an hour every night... but that stops soon...

My girls broke themselves of the bottle at around a year old because they wanted to drink out of a cup like their siblings, but my son was a different story. I tried everything to get him to give it up at the age of 2. I was pregnant with his sister and I didn't want 2 babies on bottles. He stopped getting milk in it at night around a year old. I only put water in it at bedtime to prevent his teeth from rotting. I tried having him wrap them up as a present for the baby along with a bunch of other ideas. Not one worked until he pulled the nipple off the bottle and spilled milk everywhere. I told him if he was big enough to take the bottle apart then he was big enough not to need one. I had him get a garbage bag and collect every bottle in the house and then had him take the entire bag out to the garbage. He was fine and went about his business and never asked for a bottle again. I took him to the store and let him pick out some tippy cups, and I bought the baby her own bottles in girlie colors so he didn't associate them with his. We never had a bottle issue again.

Thanks everyone
Will try these ideas, when the boys come home

just make sure that once you start you are firm about it. it is a non negotiable issue because if you give in you will have to start all over again
