You certainly can't with my Škoda Superb 3.  You can lock it from inside, but not with another key whilst it is running.  It has keyless entry/ignition (KESSY) though, not sure if that makes a difference?  It detects if there is a key in the car and won't allow another key, or use of the touch lock system to lock the car if that is the case.

I get round it in my X5 by locking car with the button inside while engine is running, opening drivers door with handle, and then locking with key.

All doors then locked.
