I have an ATT usb aircard.

I was wondering if it's possible to make msn use my home network, and another application to use the aircard.. if they're both connected at the same time?

Yes; you would need to create a static route to the exception network (i.e., Default Gateway to the Internet, static route to the network that hosts the other service(s)).
Syntax for Windows is: "route add <target network> netmask <mask of the target network> <gateway address, your air card> <optional metric>"

You would verify that with a "netstat -rn" command

Good Luck

By application, and working concurrently using Windows client OS?

Nah, it can Not be done.

Jack's right, speaking of a specific application.

If you can identify the network / Internet service by address that that application uses, then you can tell your system to send all traffic to that network or address using a static route, as mentioned above.
