no, it's not possible that way.
The only possible way for the moment is to do it manually, ie:
- trigger a timer for both UPSs,
- create a flag when the first one is reached,
- test in the second, when called, if the first flag exists...

Note that there is is task logged in docs/ideas.txt about that ("Monitor
program with interpreted language")
