Not that I'm aware. And when I tried it just to see what happens 
it killed IDLE completely - Window disappeared  and everything!

You could of course do it in one line using a semicolon but 
it is no more concise than using two lines!

a += k; b += k

And you could use a generator expression, but thats even more typing!

a,b = (n+k for n in [a,b])

Sometimes simplest is best...
