I don't believe this is possible out of the box. The first RESULTS block
from the beginning of the buffer will be updated, and not the others.

You might be able to use a hook function to do this, something like:

#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(defun update-results () (interactive)
  ;; get name of src block
  (let ((name (org-element-property :name (org-element-at-point)))
        (results))
    (when name
      (org-element-map (org-element-parse-buffer) 'fixed-width
        (lambda (object)
          (if results
              ;; replace value in block
              (setf
               (buffer-substring
                (org-element-property :begin  object)
                (org-element-property :end  object))
               results)
            ;; set results
            (setq results
                  (buffer-substring
                   (org-element-property :begin  object)
                   (org-element-property :end  object)))))))))
#+END_SRC


#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(add-hook 'org-babel-after-execute-hook 'update-results)
#+END_SRC

This worked on a small test example, but I did not test it
thoroughly. your mileage might vary ;)
