Baking soda is already an ingredient of baking powder so by mixing the two you would be simply changing the proportion of baking soda to baking powder. It will make no real difference to the outcome if you make up the volume of raising agent the recipe calls for with any proportion of baking powder to baking soda.
As a safeguard you may like to add a teaspoon of white vinegar or a tablespoon of yoghurt or buttermilk to a cupcake recipe made with baking soda - the acid in the vinegar/yoghurt/buttermilk will react with the Soda to release carbon dioxide which will make you cupcakes rise.
