I have a 1 Mbps & a 512 Kbps network connection via Ethernet & WiFi (USB Adapter) respectively.
My question is that can I selectively use one network for download & another network for upload simultaneously?
I want to use this mainly while Torrenting (Non-Priated Materials) i.e. I want to use the 1st network to download & the 2nd network to upload at the same time.
 
Maybe your problem is going to be if the torrent traffic can be identified as upload and download sessions. You could then use something like a route command or other software to select the connection. I would see if you could get 2 different torrent processes running one for upload and the other for download. You could then use software like forcebindip to tie the traffic to a process.

The main issue you have is all sessions are actually sending and receiving some traffic no matter which direction the traffic is going. The sessions themselves though could look exactly the same.

If you attempted to say send all outbound traffic on connection 1 but receive all inbound traffic on connection 2 it will not work. You would be attempting to use 2 ip addresses to process the same session which is not allowed. This is the same reason you can not combine 2 internet connections to increase the bandwidth of a single file transfer.
