I hope I understood your problem; here is basically what I do:

  togglebutton1.connect('toggled', on_toggle_1)
  togglebutton2.connect('toggled', on_toggle_2)

  def on_toggle_1(widget):
      togglebutton2.set_active(not widget.get_active())
      if widget.get_active():
           pass # do this
      else:
           pass # do that

  def on_toggle_2(widget):
      togglebutton1.set_active(not widget.get_active())
