Can I program a stereo 3D game camera to render to the Nvidia Quadro by programming the camera to look for the Quadro drivers?

No idea what you're asking. Stereo 3d games are done by creating a 2nd camera slightly offset from the first. There are corresponding buffers with the left and right cameras. Just like games now use a front and back buffer, these also use the new features of left and right buffers, for a total of 4. In addition to that software logic, there is also a special polarized monitor and glasses that separate which eye can see which buffers.

That's probably not the best explanation but it's the gist of the current technology that I know.
