Yes

A piece of paper can be split in half several different ways. One can cut it with scissors (horizontally or vertically) tear it, slice it with knife or use a professional cutting machine (like guillotine).

But if you mean cutting the paper in half, thick-wise,

that is a lot more difficult to do. If the paper is regular printer or newspaper thickness, regular household methods won't cut it. For that you need laboratory equipment, especially something that can do cutting on molecular level.
