LinuxCNC needs accurate feedback of the spindle position to slave the movement to the spindle.
If you can arrange that then there is still a bit of a problem in that LinuxCNC does not, at the moment, support multiple spindles.

It very nearly supports multiple spindles, I have written a patch that supported them and worked back in January.

This is the readme for a simulated config with the patch: github.com/LinuxCNC/linuxcnc/blob/5653f5..._multispindle/README
