No.
Non-RISC OS distributions of PSUtils include a script called psmerge,
which might give the impression that it could do that, but it only
works under very limited circumstances (files generated by same
program using same PS driver with same fonts), not in the general case
of two arbitrary PS files.
The only reliable way of combining two arbitrary PS files under RISC
OS is to create a PDF file from both PS files via GhostScript.
