Communication between eth0 and eth1 over the cable

Dear linux-net readers,

Is it possible to have two network interfaces and communicate between them 
trough the cable (I.E. not use the loopback device)?

Setup: eth0: 10.0.0.1, eth1: 10.0.0.2

ftp/http/ping/whatever 10.0.0.2 should go out of eth0 and be received on
eth1 and visa versa.

I have tried the obvious with routing tables and forced route to 10.0.0.2
trough eth0 etc, but Linux still takes the short cut trough the loopback
interface, and it does not work if loopback is disabled.

The reason for doing so is to conduct a EMC/EMI test of a product: the Atmel
Network Gateway, single board computer.
