I just purchased the Garmin 276C and I got the Automotive Kit and Blue Charts. Is there a way to load maps from both sets of software onto the memory card at the same time or will I need to switch cards when moving from land to sea and from sea to land?

So long as you have unlock codes for both, they should display OK.
The problem is when I upload the maps to the card the maps already there are deleted. So how do you upload from Blue Charts and City Select without deleting one or the other?

Since Mapsource products share the same environment on your PC, is is not possible to select map sections from each product on the same screen?
I have just loaded City Select and selected the Glasgow/Edinburgh area for upload, I then switch to Bluecharts Atlantic and selected a West Coast (Scotland) area. The uploads were listed in the left-hand column of Mapsource, and although I did not wish to disturb my maps in the Garmin, I have no reason to believe they wouldn't load.
