For shared vs. static, this is not required, just compile both and split the package regularly. For all other cases, the build rules make of course call make distclean during the build or (even better) build in two different objdirs. The --prefix should always be /usr (as dh_make does it) because someone might choose to compile paths into the binaries. You can set a different prefix at install time.
