As the others have said, a computer on one network will not see a 
computer on another, BUT one can tell a computer to have a second IP 
address.  I have only tried it with a different subnet (?) -- whatever 
the third set in the dotted quad is called.  My original was 
192.168.4.x, wanting to look at 192.168.0.x.  I haven't tried with the 
10.x.x.x group but seems like it should work.

On a computer with a static address of 192.168.4.22 I entered:

     sudo ip addr add 192.168.0.199/24 broadcast 192.168.0.255 dev enp1s0


Now the machine has both 192.168.4.22 and 192.168.0.199 and can 
communicate with machines on both networks.  Good news is on reboot the 
added address goes away so if a mistake is made it is not permanent.

The 'enp1s0' at the end is the NIC device (can be determined from the 
ifconfig output).

Good Luck!  Hope this either solves your problem or leads you to a solution!
