That should be possible. I am assuming you want them to work 8h either Sat or Sun and not 8h over both days, correct? You would define one shift row in the work plan for Sat and Sun (or one for each) and be sure to mark Sat and Sun as optional days.
If you instead wanted some amount of 8h to be worked between Sat and Sun, that should still be possible. You would have variable pay between 0-8h on both optional Sat and Sun and let need dictate when the 8h are scheduled.
Of course you have to ensure maximum weekly paid time, maximum scheduled days per week, and other constraints work.
