With the wheel all the way out by the ends of the CIMs, this looks like there would be enough room for the pancake on the other side. This would obviously be a higher-speed, lower torque shift, so perhaps a different shift mechanism would be in order.

The only issue with that like I said earlier would be interfering with anything on that side of the gearbox such as the tube and the wheel as well as the limited supply of COTS ball shifter gears and dog gears, unless you want to custom make your own dog gears or ball shifter gears.
