Yes, very easily. Just name your second array file something different, like menu_array2.js, or whatever.

As for what to delete, note the following at the top of the array file...

Code:

//The following line is critical for menu operation, and MUST APPEAR ONLY ONCE. If you have more than one menu_array.js file rem out this line in subsequent files
menunum=0;menus=new Array();_d=document;function addmenu(){menunum++;menus[menunum]=menu;}function dumpmenus(){mt="<scr"+"ipt language=javascript>";for(a=1;a<menus.length;a++){mt+=" menu"+a+"=menus["+a+"];"}mt+="<\/scr"+"ipt>";_d.write(mt)}
//Please leave the above line intact. The above also needs to be enabled if it not already enabled unless this file is part of a multi pack.

As it says, remove that code (or rem it out with //) from ALL array files except the first one you call.

For instance, if you have the array files...

menu_array.js
menu_array2.js

...leave the code in place in menu_array.js, but remove it from menu_array2.js.
