Two VLANs, One Subnet

Can you tell I'm reworking my LAN?
I have a public /29 subnet, meaning I get 6 public IPs. Amazingly
enough, I have 6 devices that could use a public IP. Perhaps even more
astounding, I on occasion have more devices that get a private IP in the
range 172.17.0.0/24.
Here is how I want things to work:
ISP -- cisco -- openwrt -- LAN
cisco, openwrt, and 4 devices in the LAN have public IP addresses in the
same /29 subnet. I want openwrt to do NAT (as needed for the private
subnet), routing, and firewall.
I also want to, if possible, limit the broadcast domains so that cisco
and openwrt are separate. Therein lies the rub. Can I set up VLANs on
openwrt and still route between everybody on the same /29 subnet?
openwrt is a 6-port switch, basically. One port goes to the chip
(router), which is in turn connected to the wireless interface. The WAN
port and the other 4 ports are all on the same switch, and separated (or
not) by the VLAN configuration.
The Cisco is a beautiful thing but I want to do as little as possible
with it.

right keys at the right time and the instrument plays itself.
