The orange mask of the blank C41 strip would let the scanner do the automatic reversal / color conversion. I suppose you could scan them separately and then combine the images, assuming you have a filter to invert C41 (taking into account the orange mask.)

You can try sandwiching together a blank piece of
C41 film and your cross processed film, then scanning as
a color neg. The blank bit of film will re-introduce the
brown mask of the color negative film.

I've had film sandwich scans completely unusable due to Newton's
Rings which will, at times, be produced where the two films do not
meet.

Why not scan the original and the blank negative separately and combine them in Photoshop?
