Sure Max, and doesn't need the duplex feature at all if you are willing to do 
it in 2 runs.

Print the 10 pager to the first side of 10 sheets
turn the paper around and put it back in the input tray
then print 10 copies of the one pager.

Piece of cake if you have something like kprinter, a printing manager 
available.

Which is how I'd do it anyway since I don't have a duplex capable printer.
