I think it would be bad idea to simply T it. You might be able to pull
it off using a a couple heat pump reversing valves. A T would not be
balanced and the evaporator with the fan running would have very
different charateristics from the one where the fan was running. It
would probably freeze up and might also result in liquid refrigerant on
the return side. All in all seems like more trouble than it would be
worth.
