I believe they mean that the random variables have a common support. For example, if X ~ Unif[0,2] and Y ~ Unif[1,3], then their respective PDF's overlap in the interval [1,2], meaning the only interval where both X and Y can have common values is [1,2]. To illustrate, below is a representation of the supports of X and Y, below which is a representation of the real line.
