It probably is but you might introduce dropped frames if you do both at the same time for realtime mixing.
If you just want generic standard video input support and over the air hd capture ability both pinnacle and hauppauge make usb devices that work well and are usually less than a 100.00 usd.
I think you might want to reithink your application of the mixing application. You can probably get just as good results if you capture the video seperately and then post process the video after it is captured. Then you can use the dv-avi or whatever format it's captured in with a nonlinear editing software like pinnacle studio or sony vegas or a number of other applications. Most of these programs allow for overlaying video and dubbing audio commentary and similar advanced features.
If you give a more detailed description of what you want in your final output of the video we might be able to direct you better.
There are firewire adapters that can accept multiple inputs I believe. Check into the canopus line of products for more information.Donatello - The Shredder? Michelangelo - Maybe all that hardware is for making coleslaw? -

It had an cheap capture-card on board, older version of this one:

Hooked the analog output of a camcorder, into the capturecards analog inputs, so firewire or usb connections, as you say are not necassary. Then i started virtual dj, which has the ability in it to start the capture-card, and allowed me to display my camview tru vga-card output on a projector/screen.
The old pc's mobo was broke, now i use a quadcore with vista on it, for mixing.
Unfortunally the capturecard doesn't work on vista, so i need a new one.
