Not quite, but you could if you were OK with having xsi:type
attributes in your instance:

<supertype xsi:type="typeone" name="CoolBeans">This is a typeone element.</supertype>
<supertype xsi:type="typetwo" flag="true" style="neato">This is a type two element.</supertype>

If you don't want xsi:type attributes in your instance document, then
using Schematron, as you are doing, is the best solution, I think.

Cheers,
