We can order pages by title.
Also we can sort them by menu_order.
Is it possible, to order pages by menu_order and title at the same time?

Use 'orderby' => 'title menu_order' or &orderby=title menu_order (depending of the syntax you use for your query parameters).

Wow. Does that work? I'll have to try it out... It doesn't look like it should from the source... Oct 19, 2010 at 21:20

It doesn't seem to be documented anywhere. I actually discovered it while browsing through the code. :)– sorich87Oct 20, 2010 at 18:15

wow... didn't know. looked in the codex and learned alot: none makes it empty and it really is an array exploded by spaces. already added it to the codex.– kaiserFeb 4, 2011 at 5:10
I don't yet have enough rep to comment so I will have to post this tidbit as an answer instead.
Since WP 4.0, you may compound any of the available orderby values by padding them as a space-delimited list.
This is somewhat documented here
orderbywill also parse a space-delimited set of columns:
$q = new WP_Query( array( 'orderby' => 'title author' ) );Prior to 4.0, there was a problem: the value for
orderwould only be applied to the last value that you passed in that space-delimited list, producing anORDER BYclause like:
ORDER BY post_title, post_author DESC
In answer to your question, you may use 'orderby' => 'menu_order title'
