How many vehicles could stand by for a hook turn in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia? I can't find its answer anywhere. And if there's a restriction, what do the vehicles who need to turn, do? Let's assume that you're only allowed to perform a right hook turn from far left only.

Here is the Official VicRoads Hook turn Info. It doesn't directly answer the question of how many can wait for a hook turn.
The answer has to be "as many as will fit into the intersection".
Any car not already in the intersection would have to go through a red light to complete the hook turn. So I guess technically the answer above should be "no more than can fit into the intersection"...

So this would mean that if the road joining from the left side has 2 lanes joining the intersection, there'd be a room for 2 vehicles? (1 behind the other)

@AkashAgarwal the video linked shows 2 cars, but even in that example there would be space for a 3rd card behind them. From observation I can say I've seen the entire left lane of traffic back to the light full of cars making hook turns. And yes. always 1 behind the other.

And I suppose, the cars that don't fit into the intersection remain in the far left lane of the road until they find a space in the intersection for themselves?

Yes. Cars that don't fit wait in the left lane (which is blocked by the hook turners anyway). The light change and so now the waiting car is facing a red light and can't go anyway. Then the lights change again and the car(s) that didn't fit can now enter the intersection and wait for their chance to do a hook turn.
