No. =(
While the price of hardware continues to fall making the option of
having two CRT displays for the price of one LCD display an appealing
option, Squeak does not support it.
To do so would require some changes to the image format and VM...
Currently Display is a special object that can be accessed by the
platform dependant VM code which then creates a display based on a raw
bitmap stored in the image. Many changes would be required to allow one
to instantiate Display as you suggest. =\
