Quite feasible.
Back when I was making a living doing studio recordings for clients on
a Windows PC I even used a five part bootable partition system. That
made it really simple! If Windows fucked up I simply rebooted into an
identical clone of that system + applications partition and kept up
the work flow. Simplicity rules!
The setup was two identical system partitions for audio recording
(tweaked for CPU efficiency and stability), a third identical clone
used for beta testing of software, one office work system and one
"crap system" partition used for downloading and gaming.
