What would you imagine would be to gain from that ?  Seems like the 
whole point of laminating (or at least one of the biggies)  is to 
counter the tendency towards cracking along the grain.  Tho I've always 
been curious as to just what kind of crown / strength / etc. etc. etc. 
you could get from a 2 ply 90 degree panel.  Not really my end of things 
tho so I suppose I will have to settle on being curious.
