Trust Relationship Between Different Forests w/Same Root Namespace

$

Does any one know if it is possible to create a trust relationship between two different Active Directory forests that share the same root namespace?  The scenario is:

Forest/Domain A:

  NetBIOS name: ACME

  Active Directory namespace: acme.com

Forest/Domain B:

  NetBIOS name: CONTOSO

  Active Directory namespace: contoso.acme.com

I'm wondering how this would work if DNS in both forests/domains is authoritative for the acme.com namespace.  There was never any physical relation between the forest/domains - they were built by different IT admins at different times but now this organization would like to establish a trust so as to share resources (eventually they will likely migrate to single forest).
