I'm no expert on the 5150, so does it have a preamp out that will not automatically cut the signal to the power stage? If so, go for it. tone from the 5150 + power from the other amp. You are essentially running a mini-PA from your amp this way. - do you just need this for shows? You may want to simply mic the cab (which has a bit of sway over tone as well) through PA if that is the case.
This is what kurt cobains guitar tech did for him he used a boogie combo slaved to a huge solid state PA head cause he kept blowing up the tube heads or damaging them anyway more likely bumping it to much a solid state head can take it. Having said that Kurt wasnt known for his live sound most recordings he did were all tube.
