I don't know of any way to do it through a sound card, but there are a 
number of devices which work via USB ports.

I use a microKEYER-II made by microHAM (go 
tohttp://www.microham-usa.com/Products/MKII.html ) which is a complete 
interface, including rig control, voice and CW keyers, and other features. 
Requires a single USB port off your computer, and works seamlessly with
