Yep, I do that sometimes... occasionally configuration is a bit difficult, but it can be done.
Yes ,if your laptop has two card slots you can manage that.
But perhaps one card and microsofts Virtual WiFi will be ok also :

You may try that if that don't work then you can get another wireless card . As for the wireless card , I want to give you a suggestion .The CP Technologies LevelOne WNC-0500 MIMO Wireless PCI Card .Wi-Fi Compliant with IEEE 802.11g and IEEE 802.11b Standards,uses 2.4 GHz Frequency Band.Supports Ad-Hoc (Peer-to-Peer) Mode or Infrastructure (AP-Client) Mode. And the price has been dropped a lot , a recent deal is only $10 :

recognition, no hassle connections. Anyway hope this helps.
