Yes, Muse supports this too, and has done for some years, not sure how many. the parts print together in pairs with the notes vertically aligned so that simultaneous notes are below each other.
(Actually this piece seems to have thrown up a minor bug - on the harmony line, the first staff has the key sig and time sig after the initial repeat. Normally these things work just fine.) Muse doesn't care whether you do all of one part then all of the next or alternating like this.

Some (but not all) ABC programs do this already. For example, here's a nice Swedish waltz tune with a harmony line. It's laid out like the printed page, with the staffs in the correct order. With abc2ps, this works just fine. Note the date; this has worked for at least 5 years.
