I'm also not sure it can be done, but it could be possible. Please let us all know if you try.

I recently had to do some quick devel work with OpenVZ inside a KVM VM (Fedora host / SL6 guest / SL6 guest) and I can confirm that this works just fine. At least as much as I had to play with it... If I remember right I actually compiled a custom kernel, a bunch of other packages and than composed a live image in such a VM.
