Yes.

Olsrd2 would generate two routing tables full of routes. You would
need two policy rules to activate both of them.

You would not need to update all nodes at the same time, you could
build up the "no vpn" topology as an optional one with node after node
(multi-topology capability is already built into each olsrd2).

I don't have an easy solution for this.
