Theroretically it is,
I've had a few cards in 1 PC a few times b4,
SBlives dont always like it, but u probably have it already working yeah?
Well, u need a program like soundforge or cool edit or similar,
get a demo or freeware/sharewre version of one of these apps,
there are plenty of sound editors/recorders around.

Wire the two cards up, out of 1, into the other, in the most appropraite way, and set the "record inputs" on the card to recieve the sound inside the sound app to record.
eg: record-SBLIVE input L+R, or whatever
and press record when u play the sound from the default soundcard,

Alternatively, The SBLIVE has a setting called "What U Hear" and i belive u just enable this in the advanced record options in the windows audio mixer and press record in the recording app then play on the program u need to record......
I think this is ur best bet if u can see it/get it to work...

Hope u got all that,
