Sure that's a no brainer. Building two separate MAME PCs in the same cabinet is no issue. Just be sure to think of ventilation.
I think you had everyone thinking that you also wanted the two sides to sometimes work together as one when you mentioned "controls split ..". That's what I'm thinking, at least.
