    Yes but you must make sure that you make the scale of both drawings exactly the
    same. I have done it with a A0 drawing. First divide the drawing into the two
    A4s by using construction lines at the A4 size 297x210 or 210x297 depending on
    your layout (landscape or portrait). Make 2 layouts both A4 bring in one
    section other the drawing to one and the other section to the other. Make sure
    you have a reference point in adjacent corners at the same height for each
    layout. You should then be able to plot (Print) and overlap and join. It is a
    bit of trial and error until they match properly but it can be done.

    Make a new layout with to views of size A4. Then position your model
    in both viewports as you want it and print them on two sheets
