Duplicate traffic to two pool members in LTM

To be specific I've got a bunch of routers in our WAN sending netflow records (unidirectional UDP packets on port 2055) to a destination IP which is a netflow collector. I've recently stood up a new (2nd) netflow collector on a different server and I'd like to have those flow records sent to both collectors but can't add a second netflow destination in all 60 of our WAN routers (limitation by the managing provider).

 

So, I'm wondering if I create a pool with the IPs of both netflow collectors in it, change the current collector to a different IP and then make the IP of the virtual server the current destination IP for those flow records, can I use the Virtual Server as a sort of duplicator to accept all incoming UDP packets and send them to BOTH pool members?
