Is it possible to have two separate iteration schedules with a single Azure DevOps project?

Question

I have a devops project with two teams operating on two-week sprints. I'd like to offset the sprints by a week and thus need separate iterations e.g.

Team A sprint 1 start 2020-10-01; Team A sprint 2 start 2020-10-15
Team B sprint 1 start 2020-10-08; Team B sprint 2 start 2020-10-22

Can anyone tell me if this is even possible and if so, how I achieve it.

Reading the Azure docs would suggest it is possible, but I can't quite work it out. I can see how I can select a different sprint from Team A's sprint dates but I don't see how I can create a separate (new) sprint date sequence 1 offset by one week.

For this issue, I am afraid this is currently impossible to achieve. In the Project configuration page, we can see that we can only create a new child under an iteration schedule, and cannot create a separate iteration schedule.
