Yes. Make sure you keep both installations of Legacy updated in tandem - i.e., on the same build.
I have some ideas on how to transfer files back and forth, but I know the listers do as well. Yup,it's definitely been discussed before! You can use IntelliShare, back up the Family File on one computer and restore over the existing file on the other computer, keep the data & multimedia files on an external drive and switch that between the two computers (making sure you back up to the computer before you unplug) or use cloud sharing such as Dropbox, Skydrive, Google Drive, SugarSync, etc. There's been a lot of discussion about Dropbox on the list - you can check out the archives for that information.
