In my country, people tend to use US Dollar when cars and real estate is involved. Is there any way to have 2 types of currencies?

There is not a way that is built in to accommodate this. One suggestion that may work for you would be to use an extra field for another price. example: (default) Price: $10,000, (extra field) SI Price: SI xx,xxx

Mike is right, I would also suggest another method though it is a bit harder to achieve, hide the currency symbol by using smarty replace on the value in the template, you could then add in an extra field stating if is is USD or something else. Of course this could lead to multiple changes to multiple templates and plugins to scrub out every last currency symbol. Just another idea to achieve the same thing.
