Roy, No, you can't have multiple view frustums (or multiple views) rendering to the same canvas. In general, this wouldn't work anyway: two different pieces of geometry rendered with a different viewing frustum in the same window won't be Z-buffered correctly. One solution would be to move your platform geometry forward to ensure that it is in front of the front clipping plane.
