I haven't done this, but if I understand the alsa architecture
correctly the answer is yes.

You would need to set up with speakers on each, and then set the
application that is playing to use the different cards.  Alsa will have
assigned them different aliases, and the application will have to be
configured to use the alias of the card you want for the music genre
you want.
