Yes, you would load the data twice:

load files "file1.xyz" "file1.xyz"

This gets you the duplicates. One is in frame 1, the other in frame 2.

If you now use

frame 0.0

You will both. Select them as individual models (*/1.1) (*2.1) and 
translateSelected, rotateSelected, invertSelected, etc. Then show/hide 
them as desired.

Some experimentation may be necessary.

ah, the load command does a ZAP, so that removes any messages. Don't 
think that can be done....
