According to the manual (I have Audio Hijack Pro), yes it will record the "output" on one channel and the "input" on the other channel. But this does mean if you're wearing headphones you'll hear yourself in one ear and them in the other. If you can put up with that ....

The first time you have to boost the level of the interview without affecting the host, it will magically become worth while.

Koz:
If you do decide to try Audio Hijack I'd be interested in your experience. It's one of my top fave audio programs for Mac. Very versatile.

Also check out their freebies: http://www.rogueamoeba.com/freebies/

Soundsource puts a menu on the upper right where you can change sound sources and adjust volumes without going to preferences.

Line-in replicates the old OS9 playthrough functionality. It still has some delay, but not as bad a Audacity's software playthrough. Probably still not good enough for overdubbing, but great if you want to listen to your USB turntable without running Audacity.
