You can program a second set of tire sensors.. but in case you're asking a different question that I think you're asking-

AFAIK the car has no idea what -size- tires you have, so if they're not the same diameter as OEM your spedometer and odometer and all that will be wrong... Not sure if this is something the dealer can change with a Tech-2, but it can't be changed by the end user at any rate.
