Yes and no.
PowerPoint is able to cue this, if your computer can handle it.
PowerPoint does not play the sounds, it asks the Operating system (Windows
95, 98, 2000, ME, XP etc.) to do it. The Operating system, in turn, assigns
the task to the MCI players. They, in turn, send the sound files' data to
the sound card. Confused, wait ... it begins to make sense after a while?
If your sound card is able to play multiple sound files at the same time,
then yes, you should be able to do this. Now here is the tricky part. If
you are going to send this PPT file to any other computer, you have to plan
on that computers abilities. Just because you can get dual sounds on your
computer does not mean that they will on theirs.
So what do you do?
Simple, use an independent sound editor to dub the two sound tracks
together. Then they both will play on any system with a sound card (unless
it isn't configured correctly. But that is a very large can of worms that
we will save for another day.)
