I don't fancy your chances of getting that to work.
The problem isn't just getting two main loops to
run at the same time -- it's making sure that each
event goes to the right UI manager.

You might be able to do it by reading events
yourself, figuring out somehow which UI they
are meant for, and somehow passing them on to
the relevant toolkit. Would be platform-dependent,
since you'd have to deal with events at a low
level.
