You can't apply multiple termsets to a single field. Maybe one option is to organise your terms differently.
Imagine you have 2 termsets
Cars
Ford
Nissan
BMW
and
Public Transport
Train
Bus
Plain
You coudl organise them like this:
My-Termset
Means Of Transport
Cars
Ford
Nissan
BMW
Public Transport
Train
Bus
Plain
Then apply to your MMS field Means Of Transport. So pick a parent term as a base of your termset .

ok. Is it possible to create two enterprise keyword type column in the same list?

You can have additional custom metadata with values controlled by a term set, but if you can assign more than one value in the Keyword column, I don't think you don't need a second Keyword column (unless I am missing something).
