just use two spheres where each has a different atom type but the same
radius and place them a tiny bit apart.

just write them out in a file format that VMD supports. please note
that for most file formats, VMD expects
coordinates to be written out in the same order, since from all but
the first frame, only the coordinate information is read. exceptions
are only file formats that have an internal indexing (like for LAMMPS)
