Is this kind of setup even supported?

I don't see how it could be if machine1 is an IP endpoint:  In order
to transmit a packet, it needs to put a source IP address into the
packet - which virtually always comes from the interface.

Yes, I'm wondering about the "almost always" case. Since machine1 has multiple physical and vlan interfaces, shouldn't a (for example) server bound to one of the existing physical interfaces be able to communicate with machine2, provided that both machines know how to route packets to each other over the vlan interface without IP address?
