Nope, you can't have different-length masks on the same "real" network number.
(I think this is scheduled to change, sometime in the not-too-distant future.)
However, you can get around the problem by using "ip unnumbered" links; see
your friendly manual for details.  (The only problem with such links is that
you can't ping the endpoints directly or netboot across them.)
