How many consumer instances should you create per node thread?

Are there any use cases (performance etc.) to instantiate multiple consumers within a single node.js thread?

Not sure why you'd want to create several consumer instances in one thread, given that a consumer tends to block further execution until it is stopped.

I'd take a look at the Kafka Consumer Docs, as they explain why you'd want to use more than one consumer in the first place.
