You can use the technique for making plots within plots described
in section 2.9.6 of Mathematica A System for Doing Mathematics by
Computer.
All you do is use separate Rectangle primitives to contain both
the BarChart and the Graphics Array. Here is an example. You may
need to tweak the coordiantes of the Rectangles to get your
example to work correctly.
In[36]:=
data1 = Table[ {x, Sin[x]/x}, {x, -10,10, .4}];
In[37]:=
data2 = Table[ {x, Cos[x]}, {x, -10,10, .4}];
In[38]:=
data3 = Table[ x^2/100, {x, -10,10}];
In[39]:=
p1 = ListPlot[data1];
In[40]:=
p2 = ListPlot[data2];
In[41]:=
p3 = BarChart[ data3,
BarGroupSpacing -> 0]
Out[41]=
-Graphics-
In[42]:=
Show[Graphics[ {Rectangle[{0, 0}, {1, 1}, p3],
Rectangle[{0.6, 0.6}, {1.2, 1.4},
GraphicsArray[{{p1,p2}}]]} ]]
Out[42]=
-Graphics-
I hope this helps.
