in need of another 40A

Ok, so I was "discussing" a six motor drivetrain with my team. Then, one team member pointed out that that we only have six 40A breakers available, and that if we have a high draw motorized arm, we'll have a power problem. Personally I think our arm shouldn't draw that much, but anyway, is it legal to wire a pair of 20A breakers to act as a single 40A?
