I think you have to have a separate node so the default slug will always be longer, but you can add a special field to your document type that lets you specify a list of alternative URLs as a comma separated list.
The field has to be called Umbraco Url Alias (generates a field called umbracoUrlAlias) and you enter the alternative URLs as a comma separate list, e.g. for above if you enter lp, lp1 then
/landimg-pages/lp
and
/landing-pages/lp1
will both point to that document (as well as the default landing-page slug).
Not sure how easy this is to manage (you can easily generate conflicts), but it is automatic and built into Umbraco.
You could set up a folder doctype to group nodes and then have the child nodes use the umbracoUrlAlias that is the url of that page minus the url of the parent page (the folder)
I think using umbracoUrlAlias can create multiple url for the same page. I'm using this package to remove folders from URL - "Omit Segments" Url Provider
Child pages without changing slug
Is it possible to group pages in the back office without adding making the slug longer?
E.g. currently under home I have /landing-page/
And as I create more I want to keep them together without having
/landing-pages/landing-page/
Does anyone know of a good way of managing this?

Awesome, thanks Chris.
Its a shame about the separate node though.

Brilliant - Not sure how I didn't come to that conclusion myself following Chris' reply.
Thanks both!
