I think it has not been tried in humans, but it is better to ask if anyone heard anything like that in humans or in mammals.

No, it is not possible. There must be a male and female component for each of the chromosomes, not just the sex chromosomes, or the foetus will not be viable. Single sex fusion embryos will not survive.
The respondent Papilio troilus is not quite correct about Dolly. I believe she was created by inserting the nucleus from a mature (udder) cell into an evacuated ovum, not by fusing two ova, as such. This is why Dolly aged prematurely, the nucleus "remembered" how old it was, and took all of Dolly along with it.

Fusion is the process of two or more nucleus of atoms joining to make a different atom.
I have not heard of attempts to join same sex chromosomes together in humans, but I read an article where they successfully did this with rats (Discover Magazine).

yes. Dolly lamb is created by fusing 2 ovum together.
I have never heard about organism that created from 2 sperm
