Is it possible to have two different blog layouts in the same theme? They would pull the same posts, but have a different layout structure. The only idea I’ve had is making a couple custom page templates that pull blog posts but have different structure/styles. Is there something simple I am missing?
The reasoning is to have one version of the posts (which are educational) that displays a lot of the excerpt and images in the blog index and then a different version that is more succinct for a review printout.
Thanks.

YES! You need 2 custom templates. One for standard view for your visitors and second for your review printout. But you need to create also for that second printout page header and footer manualy and also some functionality. You can’t use the same head and footer from other pages. Or you can but you then need to overwrite funcionality what you don’t need there or disable.
You need to be there just carefull and be clear what you want there. Is not that complicated but can made a mess on that “special” page. Loop of posts can be the same just with new HTML, JS and CSS in printout page.
