I'm trying to convert my songs in tapes created in my 4 track portastudio to 4 tracks in my PC. Is it possible for me to patch each channel of the mixer in my PortaStudio individually to separate inputs on my soundcard ?

If not what are other options ?
 
Sure, very possible. Depends on your sound card though. Does it have more than 2 inputs? Does your tape multitracker have seperate outs for each track? If it's yes to both of the above, should be a breeze.

If your soundcard only has 2 inputs, all is not lost. Send out the L/R stereo 2 tracks at a time and sync them up. Could be tricky, but not impossible.

The input should be stereo though, so you need some adapter to get it from your multitrack. Probably 2 RCA Mono's to a Stereo 1/8".
