Is it possible to set up virtual FX on a track armed for recording that will allow them apply the FX to a live recording in real time?

Specifically, I'd like to set up a noise gate and limiter on the track and have it "working" during the recording. Until I get whatever passes for a "studio" built, my recording environment is a bit noisy. I'd love to set up a noise gate to eliminate everything below a certain dB level. And if I can do that, then a limiter might also be nice so I don't have to have one eye on the meter, one eye on the lyrics, and one eye on the baby monitor to tamp down those pesky transient spikes.

I figured I'd ask before I tried.
