No, in systemd there's only one "systemctl enable" and it applies the [Install] section of the unit file, and that's really all there is. You can probably add two unit files and use Alias= so that they pick a common name as alias. But one unit cannot have two distinct [Install] sections, if that's what you are looking for.
