No. Video loopback is just a way for an application to expose a virtual
camera, for another application to use. It is not a way to share a camera
within two applications.

Sharing a camera is fundamentally impossible due to the limitation of the
hardware, which cannot capture in two different formats and sets of buffers
simultaneously. Live with it.
