Delayed duration spells

This has been bothering me for awhile: is there any (direct) way to make a spell be both delayed and limited? For example, a spell that 10s after casting applies a status effect that then lasts for 60s more.
All the available timing modes only let you enter one value, seemingly meaning that if you delay a spell you can designate when it will take effect, but not how long it will last (with the exception of making it permanent) - meaning in turn that the only (direct) way to designate how long a spell will last is to make it instant rather than delayed.
I realize you can get around this e.g. by having a delayed spell cast a new spell that instantly applies a timed effect, but is it really not possible to do directly?
