Wordpress Multi site: virtual subdomains

Hi

I know someone who has a web site with Wordpress, but they have a sub site as well for their friend.
To look at their friend's domain, it's a subdomain of their main site.

If you login to their site, you can see both sites in the top admin menu, but also a Network Admin dropdown too.

So I want to know if the Duplicator plugin can work to pick up both at once, or if that's not not feasible?

It may be a better solution to separate these two sites, so they are physically in their own Databases, and the subdomain is an actual subdomain instead.

I have done multisite setups before but that was mostly for sites with very closely related content. It's a bit of a pain to work with and even more of a pain than usual to migrate, so I would lean toward avoiding it if at all possible. WP itself doesn't take a ton of room, so having two installs running shouldn't be a concern.
