That makes very little sense.  The cargo scoop opens to the cargo bay of your ship, whereas the fuel scoop opens to the fuel tank and presumably includes some sort of mechanism for properly collecting and routing gaseous hydrogen into a pressurized holding tank.  These are two very different places on one's ship and, practically speaking, the scoops would have to be specialized devices that perform very different functions.  It would not be just a matter of some ducting and a switchable vane to direct incoming items of very different types to the appropriate empty space within the ship.
