No. And you don't even want to try... Document IDs are NOT invariant. Particularly when you delete a document and optimize an index, all the documents that come after the deleted one get new doc IDs. Trying to keep these two indexes in synch will be a nightmare.
Perhaps you could explain what you're trying to accomplish and we could suggest other approaches. See: http://people.apache.org/~hossman/#xyproblem Your question appears to be an "XY Problem" ... that is: you are dealing with "X", you are assuming "Y" will help you, and you are asking about "Y" without giving more details about the "X" so that we can understand the full issue. Perhaps the best solution doesn't involve "Y" at all?
