It's certainly possible. Obviously it will need a bigger machine than
you would use for just one of the databases.

Bear in mind that you can't have cross-database queries without using
something like the dblink package. I don't know if that affects your
"exchanging data".

Oh - and unless you really have no choice in the matter, use 9.1 rather
than 8.4 - you will get better performance, new features and it will be
supported for longer.
