hi pwozrak !

at first you must tell what kind of cards you have analog or digital.
with one digital card you can record up to 4 streams simultanous.
but not all channels. you can only record channels from the same broadcast.
like rtl rtl2 super-rtl or pro7, kabel1 sat1 here in germany.
with an analog card you can only record one stream at a time. Unless you buy more cards. now you can stream more than one analog or digital programs. you can grab multiple streams with multiple instances of VLC. But you need a very fast PC. you can mix analog and digital cards in one PC.did you ever heard of myth TV. it´s a networking and multicard media center for linux. very good for such things.

If it's a DVB card and the 'radio' channel you are tuned to has multiple programs on the one 'multiplex', then yes.
But the tuner can only recieve one 'radio' frequency at a time, so you can only tune to one transmitter. How many programs are on the one transmitter is up to the broadcaster.

I've got a DVB-S card in a PC, tuned to a particular satelite transponder and I'm getting 10 TV channels out of it. This is rather extreme though. Most transponders have less.

My local digital terrestrial stations tend to transmitt a SD channel and a HD on the same frequency. (They are not allowed by law to multichannel here), so you can recieve and record/stream the SD and HD channels at the same time with the one reciever card. You can not simultaniously get another TV station's programs, they are on a different radio frequency, need a 2nd card to tune to the other frequency. (Or a dual tuner card).

I use megasteaming software. Although you would have to do a P2P (peer-2-peer) search to find it as it is very hard to find. I can do everything streaming from my PC. It is too much to share details, just search for it on P2P programs.
