Yes Scott, if the owner of the gun wanted a 2nd set of barrels he could send his gun back to PB and they would make barrel set with matching fore end numbered to gun.

My CH 12 bore was originally made in 1899 with Bernard Steel barrels and sent back to Parker in 1906 to be fitted with a second set of Titanic Steel. Both sets are numbered to the serial number on the frame.

Two-barrel sets with the second set fitted later seem to be more common than guns that left Meriden originally as two-barrel sets. My gun left Meriden in 1889 as a rather heavy Damascus barrel 12-gauge on a 2-frame. At some pont after 1918, when the barrel address changed from Conn. to Ct. U.S.A., it got a set of 32-inch Vulcan Steel 20-gauge barrels and a second forearm. The Brothers P also fitted a new bolt and the post 1910 bolt plate on both sets of barrels.

The Brothers P did a good job of swamping the 20-gauge barrels, while the 12-gauge Damascus barrels are very straight and thick. The gun weighs a fraction of an ounce over nine pounds with the 12-gauge barrels and 8 pounds 4.5 ounces with the 20-gauge barrels in place.
