Importing a module in Haskell only makes names available; it does not
and can not perform any actions. Additionally, that is a low level
module which exposes the X11-layer multiscreen support, not xmonad's.

If you really want both screens to switch at the same time, you might
be interested in
https://hackage.haskell.org/package/xmonad-contrib-0.17.0/docs/XMonad-Actions-DynamicWorkspaceGroups.html.

Are you talking about Trinity's window manager, or xmonad? xmonad (and
dwm) divide workspaces up between monitors; most window managers treat
a workspace as spanning all monitors.
