Co-occurrences of 「も」 and 「でも」 such as in 「何度も何度でもスキになる」
1) 「XもXでも」「XもYでも」is primarily used for emphasis. In English you might say,
"I'll do it again and again!" Here, again is used twice to emphasize that
you'll do it again. Similarly, in Japanese, 何度も何度でも, "Many many times, as many
times (as it takes)", is repeated to emphasize the speaker's intention.

2) Primarily, emphasis will be lost. For example compare saying, "I'll fall in
love with you many times!", compared to "I'll keeping falling in love with
you, over and over and over, as much as it takes!"
