No. Some health professionals have suggested this. The FDA has said that two injections at full strength are the way it was approved and that is the way it should be given.
I am sure there is data on antibody production between injections, as we had 10 tubes of blood drawn everytime we were in the clinic. But that is not approval by the FDA to change how the vaccine is given.
