Indeed currently not. The reason is that currently there cannot be multiple subscriptions on one account. As another commented pointed out, the team is indeed looking to change that in the future, however there is indeed no ETA or further info yet.

Got the same response. After being a Mail Plus subscriber for years, I felt let down when I wasn't eligible for the Pass Plus sub under the same account.
It would save me money because I currently have a (Proton owned) SimpleLogin sub for protecting my email, which I could replace for the cheaper Pass Plus.
I guess you could try using two different Proton accounts, one for Mail and one for Pass. Although I'm not sure if this will create some UX problem/conflict.
I guess I'm one Proton service away from switching to Proton Unlimited. Although the counter-argument in my head is that I don't like companies that try to provide all in one services, like all of Big Tech.
SL premium does include more features (e.g custom domains, multiple mailboxes) compared to Pass Plus. It you‘d as example count in such features (if you need them) from SL premium + Mail Plus + want Proton Pass, then you could indeed already think of Unlimited.
I do use a custom domain because I'd like to be able to switch from SL if I ever have a reason to do so, but I have no use for multiple mailboxes (yet), so I guess I'll be keeping my current arrangement.
I have no need for the actual password management from Pass, as I'm quite happy with my KeePass + Dropbox (to be moved to Proton Drive when they release a Mac app) setup.
I try not to depend too much in one company/service, but Proton seems to be finding a way to suck me in.
Yes, I thought about two Proton accounts, but the effort is too much for me. I have 2 options now: Not switching to Proton at all, or opting for Mail Plus and hoping the free pass is enough for me. Maybe in the future they will introduce an option to add different subscriptions.
Afaik they‘re working on a solution to being able to combine subs, but no ETA…
