Not with card layout.

You could take a look at the SlidingLayout, which is based on The Universal Tween Engine

Another approach is to design a layout manager capable of providing the required functionality. This is far more complex, but gives you an idea of what might be involved...

For example, Animations when using Gridbag Layout.
