I'll give a try at this. Undoubtedly one of the gurus will come and clean up
my mistakes, but this should point in the right direction.

$page1 = $this->_forward('anAction', 'aController', 'aModule');
$page2 = $this->_forward('anotherAction', 'aController', 'aModule');

Having a return value in those actions should keep them from trying to
render, but you may need to add:
$this->_helper->viewRenderer->setNoRender(true);
to keep anAction and anotherAction from rendering.

I have not tried this code, it's just a best guess.
