Certainly it's possible in 4.3, here is the important snippet of my 
XF86Config (R40 system):

Section "Device"
        Identifier  "Videocard0"
        Driver      "radeon"
        VendorName  "Videocard vendor"
        BoardName   "ATI Radeon Mobility M6"
        Option          "CloneDisplay"  "1"
        Option          "CloneMode"     "1280x1024 1024x768"
        Option          "PanelOff"      "on"

It's the 3 "Options" which do the trick, although I believe it may be 
radeon specific.
