Well not exactly. What I want is that DIR0 give me the same result as DIR2.

Do you mean you want to access both sides of the drive (and thus the whole
360k of available data space) as if it were a single drive?

If that's the case then it is not possible unless you use OS9. RSDOS is
limited to access the drive as currently setup in your CoCo 3 disk
controller, side A is DRIVE 0 and side B is DRIVE 2.
