To answer your question:

  http://www.snort.org/docs/writing_rules/chap2.html#tth_sEc2.5

But why oh why would you do this?  The whole point of barnyard is to take the overhead of output plugins off from 
snort.  This might not be such a big deal if you were using '-A fast', but you are talking about the slowest plugin out 
there and probably the primary reason that barnyard was developed. Do yourself a favour and use the ACID plugin in for 
barnyard (op_acid_db).

Can the snort.conf file be configured for more than one output at the same
time?  In other words, can there be an output for unified for the purpose of
Barnyard, and also an output for MySQL Database for the purpose of ACID?

(Snort.conf file extract)

output log_unified: filename snort.log, limit 128
output database: log, mysql, user=root password=test dbname=db
host=localhost
