I have never seen any reference to a setup like that. You must admit it is
pretty unusual.

How does the Vista host connect to the Internet? Where does it get its
network config from? How have you configured the networking in the guest OS?

The main problem is that, if your Vista machine gets its IP config from
your ISP, you may not be able to get an additional public IP for the vm.

If the guest machine gets a dynamic public IP from a public DHCP server
(such as your ISP) you should be able to use no-ip or dyndns
