No, only Xinerama can do that.  But it's possible to use different size 
screens in Xinerama.  I know of a Hayes user who uses different sized 
screens in Xinerama:  http://www.rufuran.org/   I've done it myself, too, 
but took no screenshots.  So try xinerama.  Just make sure your Qt is 
compiled to support it.

Also, in the future, you should look at http://www.kde.org/faq.html for 
getting answers to questions like this.  It points to mailing lists and 
other resources dedicated to user support.
