It is not. Simply yank the selection and with 'cb' set to unnamedplus, you'll have the contents available to paste with Ctrl-C in firefox or use a clipboard manager like parcellite or glipper or klipper or autocutsel to keep both X11 buffers in sync. > small resume of main (first) thread: > > I have many proposition how to auto copy selected(visual) buffer in + > register. > But no one not work in way described in Subject.

Anyway, I have a patch, that changes the behaviour of the 'cb' option when 'autoselect' is included to always copy the selection in both X11 buffers. But you'll lose the X11 clipboard then and I don't think this is really useful.
