You would need to erase the entire partition first. Then, partition the drive with 2 partitions. When you erase the drive, the recovery HD is erased as well. However, when you install the OS on each partition, it will create a new recovery partition.
Note that if you got that Mac with Mountain Lion, you will not be able to install Lion on it. You cannot install a previous version of the OS than what initially came with the Mac. Take Care John D.
