I don't know anyone who supports both ideas at the same time. Are you saying that philosophers do?

Every guy saying that free will doesn't exist is arguing exactly this. Physical causality considered an obstacle to freedom implies that the conscious entity is somehow outside the physical world.

In case you didn't get it: you were invited to provide concrete examples of philosophers holding the explicit opinion you have described.
