There are hardware multilan boxes that will do this. In theory you can do it on a single box, but not easily (and you won't double the speed of an individual connection, just double the capability if you have multiple connections going)...

Short answer: For practical home user purposes, no.

Long answer: Start here.

There could really be a sticky topic for this around here.
