Two xfce sessions with separate configs

I've been using Arch with xfce+awesome combo. The setup works great with one monitor, but when I'm using TV as second monitor, I'd like to use clean xfce. And when using main monitor, I'd like to keep TV off.

I've already modified /etc/xdg/xfce4/xfconf/xfce-perchannel-xml/xfce4-session.xml so xfce4-session doesn't launch window manager and I'm starting awesome with startup-script. xfwm4 could be similarly be launched with startup script. So the sessions would be in principle xfce4-session+xfwm4-script and xfce4-session+awesome-script.

For screen(s) I can create 10-monitor.conf that work the way I want, but again I don't know how to create separate files for separate sessions.

So, all in all, what I want is to create sessions xfce1(xfce4-session+xfwm4-script+10-monitor.conf.1) and xfce2(xfce4-session+awesome-script+10-monitor.conf.2), which could be chosen from a login manager (I'm currently using Slim).

Is this possible or could the wanted loadouts  be achieved any other way?
