That shouldn't be a problem if you are using LVS-DR.
As long as you have handled the (potential) ARP problem
any client should be able to access the virtal service,
regardless of weather they are inside or outside the
real-server network.
Try playing with tcpdump/ethereal/whatever to take a look
at where the packets are ending up. In particularl take a look
at the MAC addresses that are being used in the ethernet frames.
