While you can have both connected at the same time, (I do), it is unlikely you could synchronize the NICs at this time. However, this is only limited to a programmer's imagination. NICs can be synchronized, but I think they have to be same make, model, etc. If you did make this work it probably would slow down your connection speed to the lowest common denominator, your wireless connection.
Maybe one of the super techs here could shed more light...
