Out of curiosity, at that point why not use 64-bit CF on your 64-bit server?

There are two ways you could do this: using "distributed mode" in CF,
or using IIS as a reverse proxy for specific URL patterns that
correspond to your web applications on the other server. The
distributed mode functionality is somewhat limited and CF-specific,
and may not work in your environment, so I'd suggest the reverse proxy
approach. Google "IIS reverse proxy" for more information.
