Unfortunately that is not possible. You are correct that only one zone driver
can be configured.

There isn't a lot of attention to the zone manager code these days - though FC
just won't die! :) - but if you are motivated enough, you could try
implementing multi-driver support.

I don't know if this would help, or make it worse, but here is the change that
added multibackend support for volume drivers:
