I have an antenna that I want to connect to 2 scanners. Would a 3 way BNC connector work with this sort of application or would a diplexer be a better choice?

Answer Yes
Truth not the best option. Why because no Isolation between ports.
Diplexer sends signals to by frequency to different ports (VHF to port 1 UHF to port 2).
Using a Stridesberg with a amp is a better option and you lose no signal to each port.
A cable TV splitter you will lose 3db half of you signal will go to each port.
