buta, SWAG, dunno for sure how yours is set up so maybe not. Most speaker jacks are hardwired so as to ground the jack connection when a jack gets plugged in. Simply changing that should enable both speakers.
CAUTION! You may need a preamplifier to handle the additional load from a second speaker. Some speaker drivers simply aren't strong enough to handle additional speakers.
