Is this possible... Please advise

Ok guys, new to the community but I have always used this forum. I have a real (stupid) question that has been burning me all night. I have tried to search and nothing has been of avail. Please help and here it goes:

I own a '65 twin Reverb that I love yet want that tube burn and break up of a lower wattage amp. I know you can't make a cat bark so I play and enjoy her for what she is and have decided to pursue modifying a champ 600 to oblivion.

First the stupid question:
Is it somehow possible to divert the signal coming from the champ to its speakers and take that sound signal and connect it to the twin (thus running the champ's signal through the twin and getting that sweet reverb sound)

Second more realistic question:
Can I use the twin as a cab, bypassing its amp?

Thank you guys for any input, its a big helpstike

You could make a new, longer speaker cable brace and sent the speaker out of the champ into the twins speakers.

I've doen that sort of thing quite a bit.

Thanks for the reply and I think that will be my best option but I am still wanting to pry...can one really send the sound signal from one guitar amp into another guitar amp?
Thanks guys for your help

No, that is not what I am suggesting.

Both your combo's are essentially amplifiers with speakers.
From what you were suggesting you just want to use the amplifier part of the champ with the speakers in the twin, right?

That is possible without even having the twin plugged in.
You just go out of the speaker output in the champ into the twins speakers (with the right cabling).
