You can pass --buildsystem to individual targets, so something like this
might work (haven't tried it though):

override_dh_auto_build:
	dh_auto_build --buildsystem=cmake
	dh_auto_build --buildsystem=pybuild

If that particular example doesn't work, I'm sure that a closely related
one should (I've seen it before, but unfortunately don't recall where).

I did a quick search on codesearch.debian.net and here's one example of
a d/rules using two separate build systems:

Best,
