What you can do is a cluster.

Since 11.3 you can define heterogeneous cluster.

I suggest you to define LTM and ASM on the same configuration, you will have the best performance/security combo with that.

Not the same configuration but on the same platform.

As it's on the same platform, you won't have to choose what's first.

And internally, it's LTM first on TMOS infrastructure.
