It is certainly possible, since that is what I do under RH/KDE. I think
I just ran mouseconfig to get both working on the console. Then I added
the second mouse to /etc/X11/XF86Config-4.
It sounds like your XF86Config only has one mouse configured. You need
to have both /dev/mouse and /dev/mouse1 configured.
Here are some snippets from my XF86Config-4
Section "ServerLayout"
Identifier "XFree86 Configured"
Screen 0 "Screen0" 0 0
InputDevice "Mouse0" "CorePointer"
InputDevice "Touchpad Mouse" "SendCoreEvents"
InputDevice "Keyboard0" "CoreKeyboard"
EndSection
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Mouse0"
# Modified by mouseconfig
Driver "mouse"
Option "Device" "/dev/mouse"
Option "Protocol" "IMPS/2"
Option "Emulate3Buttons" "no"
Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
EndSection
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Touchpad Mouse"
Driver "mouse"
Option "Protocol" "PS/2"
Option "Device" "/dev/mouse1"
Option "Emulate3Buttons" "yes"
Option "SendCoreEvents" "true"
