I am interested in building a cold atom experiment using the M_LABS hardware and the ARTIQ program. However I have already bought some National instruments cards, namely the PXIe 6738 for analog outputs and the PXIe 6535 for digital I/O and the chassis PXIe 1083 that go with them. Is it possible to control these cards using the ARTIQ program and have some kind of hybrid hardware from M-LABS and National instruments ?

You can control the additional device using functions decorated with @rpc, and augment these functions in an artiq program. However, it is impossible to have RTIO control for the additional devices, thus you should not control them in @kernel.
