You can associate one model twice to another model without issue. Think of the case when you save the Creator and Modifier of a record, they both relate to the User model, but as long as you name the association different it's fine.
var $belongsTo = array( 'Creator' => array( 'className' => 'User', 'foreignKey' => 'creator_id' ), 'Modifier' => array( 'className' => 'User', 'foreignKey' => 'modifier_id' ) ); As the Meerkat says, "Simples!"
