No, you can't call setcookie with a domain name AT ALL.

If you could, what would stop you from setting Cookies for *my* site?  Or
msn.com?  Or Sothebys.com?  Then you could just take all their customers'
money, and not need to worry about your own shopping cart.

If you want to transfer Cookies from two domains you control, it's up to
you to do that with your own hack.

It would make a lot more sense to just put all the shopping on one domain,
or have different carts for two domains.

It's more than a little odd to have the same cart on two sites from a user
perspective...  Something that's likely to confuse customers, and make
them think your site is insecure if you can't even keep your shopping cart
confined to one site.
