Using the Mixer window you can assign any of the installed devices to
any staff, so the answer is Yes you can use the Kontakt player for
some staves and any other midi device for other staves. Sib4 doesn't
come with a soundfont engine the way that Finale does, but you can
certainly install softsynths of your own and use a virtual midi device
such as Midi-yoke to run the midi output for whichever staves through
midiyoke into any softsynth you want.
What about hardware MIDI devices?
Yes, any midi device which shows up can be assigned to any staff.
So you could have an external module attached via Audigy Midi Out 1, you
could have another attached via Audigy Midi Out 2, as well as using the
Kontakt player and also using virtual midi connections such as midi-yoke.
Any devices which are enabled (have the Use column entry in Playback and
Input Devices dialog set to "yes" are possible to be used for Sibelius
playback.
Now getting all those different devices to balance properly or to record
from them is a different problem, but the playback sounds can be
directed to any midi device, hardware or software, which shows up in the
Playback and Input Devices dialog and is set to "yes."
