It is possible; you can use the cert as a CA cert.
Is it legal? Probably, it depends on what is in the agreement you have
with Verisign.
Will it work? No. The cert that Verisign signed is (on purpose!)
missing the keyUsage bits and/or other markings that identify it as a CA
cert. Nobody will recognize your SSL cert as a cert-signing cert, so
they won't accept it as such.
