You can't actually share the "memory" because two .NET applications would
each be runnning in a separate AppDomain. However, you can use techniques
such as Memory Mapped Files or Named Pipes to "share" communication or data
between processes.

It should be noted that CreateFileMapping and MapViewOfFile does
not require a separate file (by using -1 as file handle it gets
mapped to the pagefile).
