Seeding Rnd and Random

I can seed Randomize to assure that I get the same sequence, using Rnd each
time.

I can seed Random to assure that I get the same sequence, using Next, each
time.

Is there any way to seed Randomize so that Rnd starts with same value as
Next?

As a test, I used 9660 as the seed to both.

Rnd then started with 3.
Next started with 354.

Of course, the sequences may end up being different even if the first
number is the same.
