yes. though good luck getting detailed instructions on how to do
it. its basically a matter of messing around with your ~/.asoundrc
file.

one thing to be aware of: nobody has yet measured the delay in
starting two physically distinct but "linked" ALSA PCM devices. its
likely that the delay is very small, probably on the order of
<10usecs. However, since a single sample at 96kHz is only 10usecs,
there isn't a lot of room for slop here before the cards are not
started in sync with each other. somebody needs to test this soon.
