Connect 4 Nexus3548 via vPC in 2 separated Racks

Hey guys,

normally we use Catalysts with Stacking to interconnect redundant Switches via different Racks. So there would be Stack1 (2 Switches) in Rack1 and Stack2 (2 Switches) in Rack2. Connectivity between 2 racks is 4x10GB. So I can use Multichassis Etherchannel to get 40GB.

Now we plan to use 2 Nexus 3548 in Rack1 and 2 3548 in Rack2. Since they don't support stacking, I'd create a 2x10GB vPC between switches in same rack and 2x 2x10GB between the rack. 

Q1: Is this possible?

Q2: How do I configure the servers with redundant NICs? LACP and connect to both switches in the same rack?

I included a small picture with the setup.

Thanks!
