it can be done quite easily. Busses leave Lima about 3.30am and arrive Paracas about 8am for the Ballestas tours which lasts a couple of hours. The park tours can last as long as you want then the dunes later on. It will be tight and a very late night if you want to go back to Lima that day. Better to do an overnighter and see Nazca on the second day before returning to Lima.
