No, SLI only applies to cards that are exactly the same, and increases performance in games. You need an SLI 'bridge' connector for it to work.
A cheap card that is paired with your GTX 460 will not boost gaming performance, but it will let you use three or four monitors to display your Windows desktop. However, if you play a game, only one monitor that is hooked up to your 460 will display the graphics.
So: If you want a game that spans three monitors, you need a GTX 460 that is exactly like yours in specification.
But, if you just want a large Windows Desktop, then you can likely use a cheap nVidia card.
