[FieldTrip] how to combining gradiometer/magnetometer sensors - neuromag(elekta) data

Does anyone know how to use fieldtrip to merge two separate files (mag,
grad) back into one?
I did grad and mag separately and saved them separately when I was doing
ICA.
But now I want to do source positioning, and I want to use all channels
together for source positioning, how do I merge grad and mag back into one
folder?

Can I just merge the Matlab structure of grad and mag files? Will some
information be lost this way?

This is my previous code

%% magnetometers ICA
cfg=[]; cfg.channel={'MEG*1'};
data_orig=ft_selectdata(cfg,data);
save(['sub2019' subjectID{x} '_origmag.mat'],'data_orig', '-v7.3');

%% planar gradiometers ICA
cfg=[]; cfg.channel={'MEG*2','MEG*3'};
data_orig=ft_selectdata(cfg,data);
save(['sub2019' subjectID{x} '_origgrad.mat'],'data_orig', '-v7.3');

I searched a previous question, but I didn't find in it exactly how to do
this, and I also searched the fieldtrip GitHub site, but I didn't find the
relevant statements either.

I was wondering if you could help me with this?

Thank you for your time and I look forward to hearing from you soon!
