AIUI for tournament purposes those would be considered two separate games (in a double round robin or double Swiss), so I wouldn't really call it a variant. I suppose since you have to split your turn time between two boards, then it would be a variant if you consider Blitz Chess to be a variant. Otherwise it's equivalent to playing two games in a row.
