Yes, you can use the connection_id.
$conn_id = mysql_connect("HOST", "USER", PASS);
then while executing query 
$result = mysql_query("SQL QUERY", $conn_id);
Then you can work with multiple databases in the same script. You just
need to establish different onnections and use that connectionID for
executing the queries on tables in different databases.
Yes, the mysql_connect() function returns a "resource," which acts as 
a 
handle to the current connection.  Like other variables, this can be 
passed to another page using POST or GET variables.
You may want to use the mysql_pconnect() function for a persistent 
connection. Refer http://www.php.net/mysql_pconnect for more 
information.
