You can run both routers on the same physical network without a problem. 
However, you can't have multiple DHCP servers in a given logical network.

What you can do is shut off the internal DHCP server on one of the two 
routers, and let whatever machines connect out via it use static IPs.

Then you can setup one router to sit on one public IP, and use port 
mapping to put the mail server behind that router. Set the other router 
to sit on the other public IP. Now if your workstations get compromised, 
only your LAN public IP will get blacklisted, leaving your mail server 
running happily.

Of course, since part of your lan will be on the same router as the mail 
server, you won't be able to totally isolate lan problems.
