It's certainly possible, I have such a setup in a couple of servers. All
you have to do is to specify a network setup script with the "-n" command
line option and set the appropriate IP addresses and routes. Feel free to
ask me about specific details.
The part about linking a specific tun device to a specific network
interface in the guest OS sounds a bit trickier though. Maybe the patch
posted a while ago that allows to tell qemu the name of preconfigured tun
devices might be helpful.
