It most certainly won't be easy, but it is possible. Just as you were able to marry someone of a different faith without loving them less or feeling the need to convert them into your beliefs, the same should be for the child. While you may not be able to raise them directly under either faith, you both can (and probably should) teach your child of both faiths without tearing the others down, and show forgiveness if the child does something that is seen as normal for one of your faiths, but not the other. The child shouldn't be pulled or tugged in either direction, or told that they are playing favorites with the parents if they choose not to follow one or the others faith.
Eventually, the child will, at their own discretion, choose which one they feel is correct, or they may decide to carry both in life. If not, the child may decide not to have any faith at all. Whichever the choice, they should not be scorned by either parent because of it.

Compare and contrast interfaith marriage and same faith marriage?
Answer In an interfaith marriage you live that persons beliefs, so if you aren't Jewish and marry a Jewish man you have to convert to judism. If you convert then you live that life style. If you do marry in the same faith you already know well in advance what you are getting yourself into, and there-fore you should be able to make this decision based upon your own life's experiences.
