You could monitor this using Nagios BPI. You can create a business process out of these two hosts and then monitor the business process so that you only get alerted if both hosts are down. http://exchange.nagios.org/directory/Addons/Components/Nagios-Business-Process-Intelligence-%28BPI%29/details
It could be a little overkill if you only have to do this once, but if you have multiple scenarios like this it could come in handy.
