You might be able to handle this routine. In my case, my body would not be able to adequately recover from day-to-day. When you say "Crossfit," do you mean one of the workouts posted on the main site? If you do, most people who do the program do one of the workouts per day AND rest every fourth day. Crossfit workouts of the day (WODs) are almost invariably total body workouts, so traditional weight-training bodybuilding splits may not blend quite so well with the WOD.
Personally, I find myself able to run three to four days per week in the AM, sometimes with some calisthenics. In the PM, four to five days per week, I a couple compound and/or Olympic lifts to work strength and then do a Crossfit WOD. I like a 5 on/2 off split myself, and then I rest -completely- for the weekend. If you read earlier in this thread, Prester John and Surgicalcric do slightly different splits with frequent rest days, though all of our goals are probably different.
If you can stick with your program at high intensity for a few weeks and it hasn't adversely affected your performance, sleep, general well-being then more power to you, but I would caution you to start a little smaller and work your way up to a program like that to avoid burning out.
Best of luck.
