what's the cell potential of a copper electrolytic cell if both electrodes are copper? (the e0 value of the copper reaction is 0.34V)

It depends upon the concentration of the electrolyte in each half cell. If each electrode is dipping into a 1 M solution of Cu^2+ then the cell potential will be zero. Look up cell potential in a "concentration cell" on Google or in your text book/notes for a full description.
