Duplicate patent application

Of course, but as the first floor said, when the invention is authorized, the utility model will be abandoned, which often happens in practice.

Are the two patents you mentioned filed at the same time, or are they inventions? I will set them as two patents, A and B. If the claim of A covers all the novelty of B, of course it will be destroyed. There are similar cases in invalid litigation, but I don't know your specific situation and can't draw a conclusion.
