  No.

  It might be easy to modify nntpcache to do this if two servers are
slaved together and have the same article numbering.  This is very
difficult to do if the servers have different article numbering.
Basically, nntpcache would have to dowload XOVER info from both servers,
and drop duplicate articles.  nntpcache would have to generate its own
article numbering somehow.
