Is this dual PC setup on the U3415W the same for the U3417W?

You should review the U3417W User's Guide. But basically, yes. The setup is similar.
Dual PC setup on the U3417W =
* Connect the wired keyboard and mouse to the U3417W side #1-2 USB downstream ports. Or connect the WiFi USB mouse and keyboard transmitter dongle to the side #2 USB downstream port
* Connect computer 1 USB to U3417W bottom USB upstream port 1 (Port #8-1 in picture on page 11)
* Connect computer 1 to one of the U3417W video in ports (HDMI/HDMI/DP/mDP)
* Connect computer 2 USB to U3417W bottom USB upstream port 2 (Port #8-2 in picture on page 11)
* Connect computer 2 to one of the U3417W video in ports (HDMI/HDMI/DP/mDP)
* Press the #3 Menu button to open the OSD (On Screen Display)
* Go to Input Source. Choose the applicable video port for computer 1 or computer 2
* Go to USB Selection
- change USB 1 to whatever video port computer 1 is using
- change USB 2 to whatever video port computer 2 is using
