No.
If you don't want to mess with your original "/etc/X11/xorg.conf" file, you could make a second one.
First make sure you backup your original (as root):
#cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.monitor
Next create one for your TV.
Basically you only need to replace the Device section like this:
Section "Device"
Identifier "Videocard0"
Driver "nvidia"
VendorName "Videocard vendor"
BoardName "NVIDIA GeForce FX (generic)"
Option "TwinView" "true"
Option "TVStandard" "PAL-B" #(PAL-B is what we use use in Belgium, replace this with whatever you use)
Option "TVOutFormat" "SVIDEO"
Option "SecondMonitorHorizSync" "30-50"
Option "SecondMonitorVertRefresh" "60"
Option "TwinViewOrientation" "CLONE"
Option "ConnectedMonitor" "TV"
Option "MetaModes" "1024x768,1024x768;800x600,800x600;640x480,640x480"
EndSection
Back it up as well.
cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.TV
Next use whatever you need.
Monitor:
cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf.monitor /etc/X11/xorg.conf
TV:
cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf.TV /etc/X11/xorg.conf
