I think I already know the answer to this (yes) but can somebody just confirm that it's possible to use a reference 780ti SC from EVGA with a windforce card in a SLI setup, If so would it be better to have the windforce card on top so the reference card can still suck in air or does it not make much of a difference?

I would think he windforce would benefit from being on bottom. If possible, just put a 1 slot gap in there. The reference cards are squirrel cage fans, and key can suck in air from thin areas. Also keep in mind the ref card exhausts all/most air from the case, the windforce does not

Could just test both ways and leave it with what gives better temp results. But yea, it'll work
