Yes it is--you can use what's called a KVM switch (Keyboard, Video,
Mouse switch).  It's very handy.

The one I use is from Belkin and cost around US$40.  Once connected,
It switches everything from one computer to another using a simple
combo keystroke.  I suspect that a Froogle search will find this
model and others.
