No: Most of this will end up in his pee in 24 hrs. The dosing of various components of these vitamins are not toxic at that level. If he wants vitamins shop with him to get his own.

Ok for now: Teenagers are curious and willing to experiment easily. Your son will be fine as it is hard to overdose on vitamins, but due to possible attempts in the future at prescribed or controlled substances would suggest keeping meds away from his reach.

Not one bit: At 144.5 pounds your son's adult-sized,so an adult-strength multivit. will do no harm;not even 2 of them.The only vitamins that are toxic are A,D and B6 but only massive doses (like the amount in an entire bottle) would approach toxic levels.A woman's multi may have iron;too much iron can be toxic but only massive doses(at least 1300 mg of elemental iron) are toxic and it should have 20mg or less.

No: All multivitamins are generally safe, even at twice the recommended dose. But they are also pretty worthless for most Americans. Two will not hurt him.

Eating disorder?: This is bad behavior on the part of your son and you should not keep any medications including vitamins within reach of children as a general rule. He probably has an eating disorder. You should discuss this with your pediatrician on his next visit.
