Sure you can!

Theoretically, it would also mean that anything or anyone
that has access to your PC via one company's VPN network 
would also have access to the OTHER company's VPN network...

Same principle I have on my HP3000 with two NICs, I can
telnet in through one NIC, then telnet out or print to
the other NIC to another network.

You may want to ask either company if they're willing
to accept those risks.  Especially if both companies
are competitors.
