Depends a bit on your experience working out and how much fat you have. If you are 50+lbs overweight and have never worked out before, it's definitely easy to both gain muscle and lose fat.
If you're an experienced weightlifter who wants to cut down to 10% bf, it's very very difficult to do so and gain muscle at once....unless like you say, you're taking the juice.
