I want to:

Run ARKit on the main rear camera, and while it's running shoot high resolution pictures on the wide camera, without disturbing the AR tracking.

Is this possible?

Please have a look at ARKit's high resolution frame capturing API, which allows you to do exactly that: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/arkit/arsession/capturehighresolutionframe(completion:)
