Re: Different internet line on guest os?
You did ask if it was possible, you didn't ask how to do it at the same time, hence the short answer
.
If you make a connection to the wireless network on the Host and disable TCP/IP on the NIC, the Host won't be able to use it. Select Bridged in the VM settings, pointing to the wireless NIC and you're ready to go.

Re: Different internet line on guest os?
Can you give some more information as to what you did, what works and what doesn't? Also note what you get instead.
