you can do it.

First thing to check is ASIO compatibility of a sound card.
If you sound card is ASIO compatible and there is ASIO driver for it (google "asio4all") you might not even need second sound card.

Having said that I use a MAckie mixer via firewire that uses Onyx Asio driver and at the same time I use E-Mu 1616 soundcard connected via PCMCIA for hardware effects and monitoring.
I do not know how it works but it works...

But for simple A channel recording with B channel playback you should be okay with any ASIO sound card
