It is possiblle, but you don't use the VoiceOver dictionary. 

I was about 50 percent comlete on creating an AppleScript to toggle the preview 
pane in apple mail when the logic board on my system died. I was using the UI 
scrippting elements within the System Events scripting library.

Something like 
tell spilter view1 of splitter view 1 
tell the splitter
set value to maximum value 
end tell
end tell

will hide the preview ppane when in classic mode. I was testing code to switch 
into and out of classic view when the computer became completely unresponsive. 
Note: this was a 2009 computer that has been used quite a bit, and the 
batteries were getting to the point where they would only hold about 2 hours of 
use.
