Yes, you can do this. Your suggested setup for Input 1 and Input 2 is correct (or you could reverse them). Here's a preset that might help illustrate the basic setup. It was created for a setup pretty much exactly like you describe.
http://line6.com/customtone/tone/215659
The differences might be that the Inputs are reversed (not important) and the FX are (if I recall correctly) all in one path or the other. The most important point is that there are NO FX before the path split. This ensures that your vocal and guitar signals are processed completely independently. If you want them to share FX (e.g. reverb) you could simply move that FX to a point after the mixer so that both signals pass through the reverb FX.. But I would only do that if I ran out of FX slots; otherwise I would keep a reverb FX separately in both paths for independent reverb control.
Both paths are stereo - meaning you could, for instance, use a stereo delay on your guitar (as long as you don't place a mono FX behind it in the signal chain). You can use the mixer to pan your two signals as you desire. If you are feeding into a mono source (your power amp?) you can just use one of the unbalanced output jacks - the signal will be summed to mono.
Hope this helps.

+1 to silverhead
just don't expect to get great results sending your voice and ac.guitar signals to the power-amp of a Blues Deluxe combo amp, even with the HD FXs aid..
your voice will sound like boxed, and your acoustic guitar will seem almost electric..
sending the signal that comes from the pod to a keyboard amp or to a small PA instead of a el.guitar amp, would be much better

I see what you mean - it sounds OK to me, this could be the excuse I'm looking for to get some powered PA speakers! Thanks for your reply

Glad the preset works for you. Tweak to taste, and add or remove FX as desired.
+1 to hurghanico. You will get better results going in Studio mode output direct to mixer, PA, or powered studio speakers.
