Only manually as they are distinct ISO images, each of which would have to be obtained first then some work done to merge them. The CentOS project could produce an all-on-one image but I don't know if it would be popular enough for them to expend the energy -- maybe see if a SIG can be formed for the purpose. >Why is a torrent source any worse than a copy off any of the official mirrors?

There's also the CentOS provided iPXE service if netinstall is acceptable, or a local netinstall e.g., using cobbler. /mark
