As far as calibre is concerned it is the same as running calibre on dfifferent computers. But for you as a user it is almost like you are able to run calibre and have more than one library open at the same time. Almost, because you wont be able to drag and drop between the libraries. But you can have more than one library on screen at the same time.

Plenty of RAM and several processor cores helps. Otherwise it may feel too slow. |
You may have troubles running calibre in a VM and sending books to your ereader.
My brother was able to run calibre in a VM but was unable to send books to his Kobo from the the virtual machine. They (the ebooks) were constantly corrupted on the ereader. He finally ended up running ended calibre on the local machine to send books to the Kobo.
Probably something to do with the USB pass-through.
