Yes it is! Of course it is!

Tom's pointers are good. As a summary, you'll need using styles. This
style thingy is the cornerstone of LibreOffice Writer, Draw and Impress,
still very useful with Calc as well. Remember, using Writer, 95% of
questions have the "style" word as an answer.

For your needs, you'll have to create or adjust the four following page
styles:

-- one style for the first page (there's one preset that you might want
to edit to your liking). Its "next" property will have to be set to the
"blankpage" style below.

-- one style for blank pages(let's call it "blankpage") (its easy to
create one, see the docs). As the blank page will be an even page, its
next proprerty will have to be set to the "oddpage" style below.

-- one style for the odd pages (let's call it "oddpage"). Its "next"
property will have to be set to the "evenpage" style below.

-- one style for the even pages (let's call it "evenpage"). Its "next"
property will have to be set to the "oddpage" style above.

Once these exist, dealing with subsequent pages is a breeze: the "next"
properties take care of the page changes.
