Would help to know more about your existing Trac setup. Anyway,
depending on current state and on what you imagine with 'in the same
page', there are some options:

dev tickets don't use ticket type
 use ticket type=(dev|support) or similar
 + low setup/maintenance effort: same ticket system
 + potentially beneficially low barrier to pick-up user input
   in development
 - significantly different (custom) fields would require something like
   dynfields [1] to have custom, low-fuss /newticket input forms
 - harder to keep development internals private
   (likely invisible for users seeking support)

dev tickets use different ticket types
 could still use (another) type for support tickets here ...

If site = domain than even two separate Trac environments side-by-side
could be acceptable:

dev tickets in trac/dev and support in trac/support
 use different name space (InterTrac recommended for easy linking)
 + full content separation, like dev tickets + repo on one and
   just tickets and possibly wiki user docs on the other side,
 + more clearly separated user base
 - considerable maintenance overhead
 - somewhat harder to track overall demand/workload for developers,
   if they are in charge for both, development and support

Hope, this will help you to make up your mind, even to find another
solution.
