A totally different product, but my VMware Fusion install on OS X
allows me to run a Windows 7 install that I also boot to occasionally
using Bootcamp, I've had no problems switching back and forth. VMware
(the company) evidently has the IP necessary to implement this,
whether it exists in products other than Fusion, I don't know.
