Yes it is possible.
But.....
Since you state "one for broadband," I assume you're attempting to use the computer as a router and want to restrict internet access for a particular network segment.
Big waste of technology, money and resources. Routers today can be had for less than $60 US.
If it's a segmented network you're after...
A better solution is to use two routers and a bridge.
Also remember, internal network addresses (such as 172.XXX, and 10.XXX) are non-routable.

It's possible if you use Internet Connection Sharing with Windows. Look it up in Help & Support.
It's a bit of a pain to set up and on rare occasions it will not work at all.
A better way would be to buy a cheap broadband router. With that you can connect many computers to one broadband connection.

some years decrease back I saved a Praying Mantis as a puppy, and they basically eat stay foodstuff! therefore, I obtained the flexibility of gently capturing stay flies in flight, or off any floor, so as that i might want to feed my Mantis unhurt and lively prey. maximum shifting incident became late one evening at the same time as on arrival domicile i got here upon my Mantis laying off its pores and skin. I watched, enthralled, for over an hour and that i shall under no circumstances forget seeing my Mantis gradually advance and spread its sparkling rainbow-shimmering wings. next day I released it onto a grapevine in my backyard, an same backyard in which I therefore got here upon a swarm of very tiny, lately hatched mantids! they are the cutest little creatures you would possibly want to ever imagine.

You CAN do it. What I don't understand is why you would want to. You can have two Ethernet cards in your machine and manage each network seperately. On the other hand, you could get a router and access both simultaneously on one card.

Normally all the system boards have onboard network port and you can purchase one network card for pci slot and attatch for the local area connection and use the inbuilt port for the network it will make more speed on the net.

If you need to use broadband you can buy a usb modem and a nic for ethernet.
