At least for the second of the two final wickets. Run out is the only way I can see it happening I guess. At least for the second of the two final wickets.

the ten ways of getting out =
*Caught
*Bowled
*LBW
Run-out
*Stumped
Handled the ball
*Timed out
*Double hit
*Hit wicket
Obstructing the field

with all of the *s i think the 10th wicket would automatically end play,

even if a second run-out was effected it would be (1xsecond) after the end of play — tho maybe not if the appeal was sluggish and the umpire hadn’t yet ruled

maybe if one player handled the ball while the other simultaneously obstructed the field!
