You have to be careful understanding how this is implemented at the
moment.

Both pmemd and sander can do TI (compatible code) but the user
has to handle prmtops(s) in a different way. While pmemd14 needs only
one topology file (be careful calling this 'sinlge topology' because
this term refers to a particular method implementation of this kind of
simulations), sander needs two prmtops and, as you will be using the
multi sander facility, also a group file. Pmemd does not use group
files. Also, pmemd's TI code does currently not run on GPUs.
