Yes, use two compressors. I'd put the regular compressor after the sidechain compressor, this avoid unnecessary action by the regular compressor.
They will sum occasionally, depending on the material, to result in compression happening twice in one area. This probably won't be an issue.
What instruments are involved in this set up?

Thank you for the clarification Fergler!
I just wanted to make sure if I was doing the right thing but unsure about the order.
The instruments involved are actually percussive FXes. One has a more low end fidelity compared to the other but both are heavily occupying around the 80 Hz area.
So I'll first put a sidechain compressor with ext. signal option, then place another compressor with Int. signal option, correct?
Thank you!
