I probably would not recomend it.  A laminate floor is a floating floor and the flex, expansion and contraction of both as well as the hollow sound you can have with a laminate may give you undesireable results.  Laminates come out very easily and I feel it worth your while to remove the 1st laminate to elimate any future floor structural issues and install the new floor to the manufacturer's specifications.

Tyler,

It sounds like the existing laminate flooring is solid and free from flex. If so, you will have no problem installing the new laminte over the old. You will want to use a sound absorbing pad underneath to avoid a hollow sound as well as potential squeeks between the 2 laminate surfaces. Best of luck!

A floating Luxury Vinyl Tile or Plank floor may fit your purpose.  They handle scratching well, are moisture resistant and avialible in a floating installation option.  

You would have to be extremely careful to remove all debris between the two floors as one piece of sand could cause a fair amount of damage.  Moisture that may come in through the door could get in between the top floor and cork also and would cause damage if not allowed to dry.  

Cork floors can be re-surfaced just as wood floors.  If you did experience some damage it may be repairable or you could have a re-finish option.   

Hope this helps.

Thank you

I would recommend a clik together flooring that would be floating over the cork. That way you can install and remove it easily and there should be no damage to the cork below.
