I never tried to mix modern and classic latin, but I suppose that with polyglossia it might be possible, thanks to the possibility of changing settings with \PolyglossiaSetup, and/or to specify the same secondary (other) language with different options again and again. As far as I know babel, it seems that once babel ha read the language options and their modifiers or attributes, the situation remains frozen. May be I am wrong.

Since modern and classic latin differ essentialy the way thay are hyphenated, I don't exclude that by doing some wizardry with \l@latin and \l@classiclatin it might be possible to switch from modern to classic latin back and forth.

[latin hyphenation variants]

A bit of-topic: On tex.sx there was some time ago a question about
how to combine modern and classic greek in one document with babel
and I saw that there is no simple way to do it.

How is the situation for latin? Would it be possible to use the
variants (along with the hyphenation patterns) side by side like you
could do it e.g. for german and ngerman?
