Yes, if you enable multi-instance mode via
Settings->Preferences
But if it’s only about two documents, it might be even easier to use the second view that Npp supports.

There are several ways, but an easy one is: drag by your mouse (keep left button pressed) an Npp tab to somewhere on your screen. You will see the following pop-up:
Choose one (clone is another word for copy).

To obtain the two-item menu you show, it is important that “…to somewhere on your screen…” is limited to the confines of the N++ window. If you drag outside the N++ window and release the left-click, you’ll start another N++ instance (if so configured).
