Yes you can splunkpoornima e.g. sourcetype="HiqLogEndPoints" OR sourcetype="HiqLogAlert"
It may be more elegant to create an eventtype

I don't see why this isn't possible...as in all things some are a little more difficult 😉
If you try a search using both sources | eval something-you-want-to-trend-optionally | timechart min(field) or whatever your criteria is...then I figure all that remains is to identify the difference...similar to using a tag between the field from choice A (Dec-4-2012) and choice B (DEC-5-2012). Is that what you are trying to achieve?
