Hi,

is it possible to connect/"attach" Vidalia to a tor process that gets started by an init script and is running as user A, while Vidalia is running as user B?

Yes. You need to configure your Tor to open a ControlPort and set
a password, then feed that password to Vidalia. See the manual
for how to configure your Tor and how to generate the password
hash.
