I think so; however, not by keeping two different connections "alive" at the same time. I'd rather - on a database level - fetch MS SQL Server's data into an Oracle database (you'd use heterogeneous service to do that - it'll allow you to access data that is stored in an non-Oracle database as if it was within Oracle). Here's some more information.

Once you do that, you have a few options. One of them would be to create a form with two data blocks, each of them displaying data from its own data source (Oracle or MS SQL Server). Or, you could create a view as "union" (if possible) of these tables and create a single data block based on the view.
