Read posted thread. It is possible. I've done it. It works well.

edit: Sorry, that might be harsh. By routing the exhaust of a double solenoid you can do more things like controlling the throw of the piston. By switching between atmosphere and a stop on a single solenoid you control the piston. I've put diagrams and pictures up in the other thread. Look there for the details.
