it's always dangerous to change dimensions while tex is not yet finished 
with a page (you never know where tex will break), however, you can say:

\definelayout[odd] [width=10cm]
\definelayout[even][width=12cm]
\definelayout[3]   [width=5cm]

and give \dorecurse{100}{\input tufte \par}

a try; this demonstrates that you can fool around with margins on left and 
right pages
