You can pass --buildsystem to individual targets, so something like this
might work (haven't tried it though):
override_dh_auto_build:
dh_auto_build --buildsystem=cmake
dh_auto_build --buildsystem=pybuild
If that particular example doesn't work, I'm sure that a closely related
one should (I've seen it before, but unfortunately don't recall where).
I did a quick search on codesearch.debian.net and here's one example of
a d/rules using two separate build systems:
