Ah, now there's the sort of question that needs a lot more context wrapped around it - for starters, "same time" as in "nesting", or same time as in "multitasking"?
I'll guess the latter, in which case the best answer is usually "merge the code for the two loops into one".
If you don't want guesses, provide more information - such as the script to which your question applies.

The parallel API can be used for that, I suppose. Put each loop into its own function (say, 'foo()' and 'bar()'), then do:
parallel.waitForAny(foo,bar)
