We have two SolidWorks workers configured with Windchill. Only one of them is being used for Publishing jobs, other one is used only when first worker is not available . Is there any configuration can be done to equally distribute the publishing jobs to both the workers.

You will need to created additional publishing queues. General rule of thumb is one more publishing queue than cadworkers so in your case you need 3 publishing queues. See the following PTC article:
