It's not possible because you are using the same bluetooth address twice.

But you can borrow a sixaxis from a friend, pair it with your ps3 (with the usb cable), and use its bluetooth address in GIMX.

It's possible but as the pairing is performed over usb you will need a USB dev board such as the Teensy.
Building a DIY USB adapter only costs a few $ more...
