How many monitors can be used o one card?

Same question for:
Alienware Aurora

And one NVIDIA® GeForce® GTX 1080?

I would think at least 3. Count the number of DisplayPorts. If DP=3, then at least 3. MAYBE one more if there is also a HDMI port on there as well.

You do NOT want TWO GTX-1080 in an Aurora-R7. Anyway, when you SLI Nvidia cards together, I'm pretty sure you can only use the external video ports on the main/master card. The other is just a slave (that contributes about 50% of it's horse-power to workloads).
