VMware used to do this, in its "physical disk" mode. You had to create a second hardware profile in Windows to support the VMware "devices", but other than that it worked. I used it with a Win 2000 guest/physical partition and VMware somewhere around 4 something.

I haven't tried it with VMware 6 and Win XP or later.
