Exactly. The external TOC is an NCX file (check our wiki). There can only be one but it can contain several levels. Thus you can put many entries inside so that two TOCs can be accommodated by making these one level down from a top level that lists the two TOC's. Most eBook readers (but not all) will display only the top level and you can then click to expose the TOC you are interested in. In addition you can have inline (HTML) based TOC's, as many as you wish and reference the actual pages from the external TOC.
