As a proof of concept that this is possible:  If your application is connected 
to a back-end server, you could design your application as 2 applications that 
communicate through the back end.  Clearly the two applications could be 
launched in separate browser windows that could be displayed on separate 
monitors.

Obviously you would like something a little less contrived.  You could write a 
custom wrapper page that opens two browser windows with the two halves of your 
application.

Presumably what you would really want is a way for your application to open a 
new browser window with some of it's views in it.  Here, I think you will run 
into browser security as in general one browser window is not permitted to talk 
to another.
