According to me, you should focus on one course and pursue up to Master's degree. But, if you want to pursue both the programs, then you can pursue one program through distance from a different university.
All the best.

If you want to pick up the concepts and principles, but don't have time to go back to school, start with the Open University's series of short books on: -
Biological oceanography
Ocean circulation
Seawater
The ocean basins
Waves, tides and shallow-water processes
For people with some scientific training who're curious about oceanography, I recommend: -
Ocean fluid dynamics: Start with Marshall & Plumb's "Atmosphere, Ocean and Climate Dynamics." There are two supporting websites: MIT's Open Courseware site is at http://ocw.mit.edu/courses/earth.
, and John Marshall's own course page, with cool lab experiments that really get your eye in
