Transit Gateway is a regional construct. You can not share a TGW in us-east-2 with an account in us-east-1. You'll need to setup a separate TGW in us-east-1, you can then potentially peer the 2 TGWs for inter-region connectivity.
Take a look at this example: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/whitepapers/latest/hybrid-connectivity/aws-dx-dxgw-with-aws-transit-gateway-multi-regions-and-aws-public-peering.html

Thank you for your input, Tushar. I have a couple of questions: Is it necessary to associate two Transit Gateways (TGWs) with the Direct Connect Gateway if we do not intend to establish inter-region peering between the two TGWs? In the scenario where inter-region peering is configured on the Transit Gateway, is it sufficient to associate just one TGW, or is it still required to associate both TGWs?
If you dont need inter-region connectivity then TGW peering is not required. Direct Connect Gateway provides north-south connectivity (on-premises to AWS) and TGW peering provides east-west/inter-region connectivity (AWS region A to AWS region B)
Thanks again, Tushar! Please correct me if my understanding is accurate:
Answer to your first 2 questions is yes. for question # 3 - yes, you can associate the 2 TGWs with the same DXGW for the on-premises connectivity.
