Yes, multiple windows Databse can be configured on ACS SE,

The Remote agent needs to installed on the DC in the forest and select the different DC under the unknown user policy

Jatin,

     In order for ACS to authenticate two different forests you would need to have a Forest Trust between the two, you stated I believe that there is not forest trust so in your case you would not be able to authenticated to two as you can only have 1 external windows domain defined.
