I am using vserver-sources as my kernel. However, I also need a realtime-preempt patched kernel to make JACK working properly. I tried to patch realtime-preempt to vserver-sources, and there are some hunks failed. Is there any way to patch a kernel which is already patched with another patch?

I don't think so - patches contain the "before" and "after" lines so if the "before" lines don't match you get the result you're describing: failed hunks. Reversing the order of how the patches are applied probably won't help either so you'd have to make the realtime-preempt patch apply by editing it by hand to the changes that were made by the patchset... which might not be the easiest job to do.
