yes you can claim one-year work exp by combining both as they're only concerned with total hours worked. below is the criteria from the cic website:

at least 1 year of continuous work or 1,560 hours total (30 hours per week). You can meet this in a few different ways:
  • full-time at 1 job: 30 hours/week for 12 months = 1 year full time (1,560 hours)
  • equal amount in part-time: 15 hours/week for 24 months = 1 year full time (1,560 hours)
  • full-time at more than 1 job: 30 hours/week for 12 months at more than 1 job = 1 year full time (1,560 hours)
however, you will need reference letters from both your employers mentioning that you've worked 30hrs /week full-time for 12 months in total. one more thing - both noc's need to be the same as well.
