Yes I've done just that with my last project, I had a separated LCD board with buttons and LEDS. What I ended up doing was to initially draw the two separate PCB boards outlines then eventually joined them with tabbed routes so they became one board. There was still some air wires in the end between the boards connectors. You could get around this by creating separate nets for the two boards as well as different power and gnd nets, I didn't, I just knew what the air wires were and left them there.
I couldn't get the online Freerouter working as my board would not export to the DSN file due to separate PCB outlines. Hope that helps. Stephen.
