This sort of thing is possible, if you know what you are doing. However, there isn't (currently) a clean public API for this. The ORM does have hooks to make this sort of thing possible, so if you dig around the internals, you may be able to patch this sort of functionality together. If you search the Django-developer archives for discussion about multi-db support (the recent Google Summer of Code applications have yielded a couple of revivals of that discussion), you may be able to find enough detail to help. However, you're going to need to get your hands dirty - if you want a clean solution, you will need to wait a while until multi-db support is added to trunk.
