Use two repositories

Is it possible for a wiki to have local repository and still use Wikidata? Say, if I want to retrieve items from Wikidata and from local repository as pages medatadata? (Is it technically possible for a wikipedia to have local repository?)

Currently it is not possible to use Wikidata from a local client as the Wikibase Client extension requires access to the repository's database. Furthermore, in the moment it is also not possible to connect more than one repository to a client as the parser functions and other stuff will clash. However, this feature will definitely be developed in some way as Wikipedias should have access to Wikidata and Wikimedia Commons which both will be repositories once structured media info is avialable.
