    Yes but you better be ready for a huge bill from the local HVAC control expert.

    Usually they will have to install a special control panel that will accept dual thermostat imputs and a remote selector located at both thermostat stations.

    So the answer is yes it can be done. But I would not want to pay for it.

    Now a possible solution is to use a Honeywell thermostat with a remote but you will have to research that yourself.
