Haven't tried, but I would expect so.
Also, you can use RPPR to start and stop loops on any channel you want, Ableton style. And just because you can only play one midi channel live doesn't mean you can't have others playing back from the sequencer, and you can still freely mute and mix those using the control surface (set to timbre/track).

When you select another setlist slot, thus enabling a different track, is there a smooth sound transition?

Supposedly

Yes. I tried and it works very well... The sequence keeps running and the SST works very well when you change slot with different active tracks

There's a lack of design in this feature.
For example:
- in the song I want to set 2 tracks on different channels that will be played live on keyboard on splitted zones, other tracks will be played by the sequencer
- i want to play on the 2 zones simultaneously
impossible on Kronos

Not impossible, but somewhat unnecessary. Why would you want them on two different midi channels?
If you absolutely must, you can use Karma to reroute the midi, but I don't really see the point.

Because for me that are two different parts.
Also, maybe one track has status set to INT and the other set to EXT.
I must be free to use Kronos as masterkeyboard and sequencer simultaneously and without limits during live performances.
I want to use the Kronos keyboard as using COMBI but with the sequencer playing, too.

I thought you could set a track to EXT completely independent of its midi channel?
Apart from your other sound generators being severely limited (like not being able to define keyzones) I still haven't heard anything you can't do. Perhaps it's possible to use Karma for this. You can specify channel routing and in/out zones. Not entirely sure, I have never needed to though.
I'm not trying to trivialize your issues by the way, I'm just saying I believe this is a conscious choice by the Korg programmers and I don't think it's likely this behavior will change, because for many people, this is the most logical way to do it.

You boys got my wheels spinning.... I won't say just yet. But it could be very very groundbreaking!!!!!!
Ill post back later today.

It works the same way if you have two identical audio files in two adjacent set list slots.
Basically if you set your midi channels right, you can swich from on slot to the other thus changing track, and have a complete different set of instruments (layered or split) and still hear the audio file non stop.
I would probably record that sequence, put it as an audio file, so the sequencer is free for other things.
