Many major highways are built exactly that way. Concrete for strength and to help prevent heaving in extreme temperature swings, and a layer of ashphalt for noise reduction and I'm sure other reasons. As long as the concrete driveway will supply a solid foundation, adequate drainage, and so on the ashphalt will last many years.

This is an embellishment of Warren's answer, but in Minnesota when the concrete wears out they often then overlay with asphalt. Exactly what you are proposing doing. I'd suspect there are a number of asphalt driveway contractors out there who'd be glad to discuss this with you!
