CentOS-6.5 VirtualBox-4.3.14

Is it possible, and if so advisable, to run KVM and VirtualBox guests on the same host system?

Never tried it. It sounds like a really, really bad idea.....

+1 the KVM and VBox modules would conflict.

That is the easy answer, they do conflict but it does not mean you cannot load them both up. You just cannot run them both at the same time, in order to run one vs the other you need to remove some kernal mods and insert some etc depending on which one you want to run.

So the answer is yes you can if you want to you just have to do some work, here is a decent write up that goes into some detail but there may be some better examples - http://www.dedoimedo.com/computers/kvm-virtualbox.html
