Having A Match Play Section Within A Tournament

Can a Rated tournament have 2 sections within it where one is an Open section and the other is a Match section? Or does Match Play have to be in a tournament by itself with only 1 section? I thought I might run a tournament with 6 players in the Open section and 2 players in the Match section all together. But I am wondering if a Match section can be combined with an Open section in a single tournament. How does MUIR handle this?

Please help before Saturday, September 12.

Each section is independent from other sections as far as pairing format is concerned.
