Not if you need to use mixed content. If you don't, I'd do something like:
<!ELEMENT QuizPage (OtherText?, (Question, OtherText?)+)>
and store the #PCDATA in the OtherText element. If it isn't necessary that the
constraint be enforced by the DTD or you do need to use mixed content, you
might consider doing a pass with Schematron - it would make light work of that
kind of checking. The element declaration could then be:
<!ELEMENT QuizPage (#PCDATA | Question)*>
