But I think you should use two get_posts() call, one for each custom post type, and then use PHP code to loop through them to get the exact p1, p2, p1, p2, ... order you are seeking. To get two random post types you can try: array_rand( get_post_types( $args ), 2 );. You might need to filter the output with $args. See the Codex for more information on that.

The functions get_post_types() and rand() might help you with the first part of selecting two random post types. But since you're ordering by post date, you might only get results from a single post type (e.g. p1)

... or you want to feed the get_posts() with two random post types, and order the result by the even/odd pattern?

What about 'orderby' => 'rand' instead? But I don't follow your random criteria. You want to order by random post type but still have it in even/odd order.
