Do you mean you want to access both sides of the drive (and thus the whole
360k of available data space) as if it were a single drive?

If that's the case then it is not possible unless you use OS9. RSDOS is
limited to access the drive as currently setup in your CoCo 3 disk
controller, side A is DRIVE 0 and side B is DRIVE 2.
