I'm fairly sure that without serious changes the best you will get is 
two separate protocol screens. So the answer to your question is not. 
The why part (in case you ask) is that no-one has written a screen 
multiplexer yet that is compatible with randr-1.2 drivers. The intel 
driver happens to be such a driver.
