What sort of 'something' are you referring to?
Just about all lenses are capable of focusing on items at between 10' and infinity, though long telephotos might struggle to get as close as 10'.
Are you after a single lens to have both in focus at the same time? (A wide angle would do this easily with moderately small apertures) or are you after something to make the object at 200' look like its 10'? (Generally the job of a telephoto)
Few (if any) zoom lenses will cover a 20x variation in focal length if this is what you're after. I think 15x is about as far as super zooms go - though cropping could make up the difference.
If the something you're talking about is between the size of a house & a man, most kit lenses should enable you to get a shot at 10' or 200' that could be quite presentable, the views seen at the two distances would be quite different though, with the more distant shot giving more of the surroundings.
