Not precisely, but here's one thing you can do:

Boot with command-option-P-R down to zap the PRAM and let it boot
normally.

Go through the process of booting OS 9, partition the 18G disk, and do
it like this:

         1G     OS 9 boot partition
         6G     OS X boot partition
        11G     Work partition

That way you've got a reliable recovery into the OS 9 partition (and you
can use it for your Classic install as well) and the OS X partition will
be in the first 8G.
