I don't believe so.  Sorry.

Even though you have 2 physical displays they are treated as one.  If you were to start a terminal session in each you would still see....

[egreshko at meimei ~]$ echo $DISPLAY
:0

on both sessions.

You can have separate displays if you do some configuration in an xorg.conf (may be hardware dependent) or if you have 2 video cards.
