Not easily for a single query, however a relationship can have a  
join_type attribute - relationship attributes are documented in  
DBIx::Class::Relationship::Base under add_relationship

You can always have 2 identical, other than the join_type attribute,  
relationships defined under different names, to allow both forms of  
joins to be performed as required...

[Remember that join/prefetch in resultsets refer to relations and not  
tables]
