There is a program called voicemeeter which is supposed to be able to make up additional pathways and connections. I've never used it.

I do it with a sound mixer and an analog microphone. It's not visible in this pix, but there is a theatrical headset microphone on the table. I have the left-hand Mac playing sound to the mixer and the output of the mixer goes into the Stereo Line-In for recording in Audacity. So that's your two different sound pathways at the same time.

The right-hand Mac is for Skype.

The show theme music is playing on the left-hand Mac.
