I believe the setup would more closely resemble:

 

Unit 1 (Active )

 

External VLAN 10 (Active TG1) Internal VLAN 30 (Standby TG2)

 

Unit 2 (Active )

 

External VLAN 20 (Active TG2) Internal VLAN 30 (Standby TG1)

 

It may work, but there could be problems. If for example, Vlan 10 were enabled on a VIP on Unit 1, when the object syncs to Unit 2, there's going to be an error because VLAN 10 doesn't exist there. It seemss better to have complete layer 2 parity.
