Using rsync to sync two live servers

Hello,
  I have two production servers which house large drive arrays storing
digitized music for our webradio. They are used in a 'failover'
configuration so that if one goes down the other remains available.
New music is added all of the time to this library and it is a pain to
have to add it to both machines as the files are large (.wav). I am
thinking to setup rsync to keep the drives sync'd. My only question is
whether it is possible to have rsync doing its thing while these files
are being accessed for use? ie. real-time sync.

Thanks,
Chris
