I currently have two servers in it's own forest, as I understand they can not replicate because they have 2 different schemas. If I demoted one server and join it to a domain, will I lose any applications already installed on the demoted server, i.e. oracle

No you will not lose 3rd party apps. Just domain stuff like user accounts, security settings, etc.

Lets talk about fixing the schema problem?

My guess is that you have a Windows 2000 Server DC and a Windows 2003? Are both domain contollers on the same domain? Were they originally intended to be backups to each other or were they intended to control two different logical networks?
