Kind of, but any use of the keyboard requires always two hands. i.e. If you are using the keyboard, you are already using fingers on both sides. Pressing them simultaneously is actually fairly trivial.

of course the problem is that not everybody knows of this shortcut... But that's what shortcuts are for: once you know them, then you can save some time by using them, and feel happy and empowered.
